• Making Healthcare Fit Into Real Life Using Real-World Data (CSL) ($)
  CSL is a leading global biotechnology company with a dynamic portfolio of lifesaving medicines, including those that treat hemophilia and immune deficiencies, vaccines to prevent influenza, and therapies in iron deficiency, dialysis and nephrology. Since our start in 1916, we have been driven by our promise to save lives using the latest technologies.
  Today, CSL – including our three businesses, CSL Behring, CSL Seqirus and CSL Vifor – provides lifesaving products to patients in more than 100 countries and employs 32,000 people. Our unique combination of commercial strength, R&D focus and operational excellence enables us to identify, develop and deliver innovations so our patients can live life to the fullest.
  
  Our plasma business plays a critical role in saving lives by collecting plasma at dedicated plasma donation centers. At these centers, eligible donors safely donate plasma through a regulated process, where plasma—the liquid portion of blood rich in essential proteins and antibodies—is collected and the remaining blood components are returned to the donor. This donated plasma is then used to manufacture life-saving therapies for people with rare, chronic, and serious medical conditions who depend on plasma-derived medicines
  
  The Problem
  Accessing healthcare isn’t always easy.
  People juggle:
  - Work and school schedules
  - Travel and commuting
  - Family responsibilities
  - Traffic and weather disruptions
  - Limited appointment availability
  - Long or unpredictable wait times
  
  Even when care is available, it doesn’t always align with real life.
  For example, in our Plasma business, plasma donors often struggle to fit donations into busy schedules. With multiple donor centers, varying crowd levels, traffic, and even weather, it’s hard to know the best time and place. Any

  Prizes
  $25 Starbucks gift cards per team member, CSL water bottles, and an opportunity to visit our King of Prussia office to present the challenge
• Glass Box (Audit Dashboard) (Applied AI Studio) ($1,000)
  Mission
  Build UI and analysis components that explain Inhibitor interventions using shared log datasets. If your approach uses AI agents for analysis or generation, you may use starter patterns from other challenge folders or your own agent implementation.
• Dead Zone Detective (Comcast) ($)
  "You can't fix what you can't see."
  
  Philadelphia has connectivity gaps — and most of them go unreported until someone's already frustrated. Your mission: build an AI that predicts where connectivity complaints will spike before they happen. Using public FCC broadband data, open speed test datasets, and neighborhood demographic data, create a tool that gives internet providers and city planners a heads-up, not a catch-up.
  
  What we're looking for:
  - Predictive modeling using real public datasets
  - A map or dashboard that makes the insight actionable
  - Bonus points for surfacing equity patterns (who gets left behind and why)

  - Drives new recurring revenue
  - Increases average revenue per customer (ARPU)
  - Strengthens the value of the Comcast Business Channel
  - Differentiates Comcast Business from traditional connectivity only competitors
