Students of the MSc Big Data, Marketing & Management and MSc Artificial Intelligence & Business Analytics took part in this two-day challenge. They had to develop and present a solution in record time, with the support and supervision of experts from TNP Consultants and lecturers from TBS Education.
The 5th edition of the Datathon kicked off on March 15 for 48 hours of intense competition!
Students from the MSc Big Data, Marketing & Management and the MSc Artificial Intelligence & Business Analytics and, for the first time, students from the University of Galway, faced off for a new challenge.
They addressed a problem posed by our partner, TNP Consultants, a firm specializing in business consulting, which took on the role of client. The theme of this 2023 edition: fraud in the motor insurance industry.
Each year, the Datathon broadens our students’ horizons by putting them in contact with top firms from the world of Big Data and artificial intelligence, who set them a real-life challenge.
The Datathon is a genuine teaching tool that allows TBS Education’s students to put into practice the theoretical and technical skills they’ve acquired on the course. It also gives them the chance to deal with a complex, real-life situation in deliberately unusual conditions (strict time limits, in closed session) and to test their aptitude for working and problem-solving as a team.
During the Datathon, we expect to see the students behaving professionally and showing their capacity to deepen complex subjects. What’s more, collaborating with TBS Education means we can establish a win-win partnership while working on high value-added topics while making use of each other’s expertise.

Thanks to their training and to hands-on experience, students graduate from the course with a culture around Big Data and AI that enables them to solve operational problems and also become essential links in their firm’s decision-making chain.
Data has become an indispensable resource for companies and plays a critical role in their development and innovation strategies. The primary mission of our MSc programs is to develop in our students a new data DNA combining marketing, information technologies, statistical analysis and artificial intelligence.
