Jason Cole was the joint winner in  the #SummerDataChallenge: a big data contest for UK university students, organised by Imperial College London’s Data Science Institute in partnership with Starcount, Purple Seven and Imperial Create Lab.

The challenge was an open-ended contest to find new insights using some prepared datasets, and propose how these new insights could be used to create social or economic value in the form of new products, services, or businesses.
