Hosted by the Wharton Customer Analytics Initiative
The Wharton Customer Analytics Initiative (WCAI) is the world’s preeminent academic research center focusing on
the development and application of customer analytics methods. Through our innovative Research Opportunity
program and R&D “crowdsourcing” approach, WCAI enables academic researchers from around the world to help companies understand how to better monetize the
individual-level data they collect about customers through the development and application of new predictive models. We marry our work with companies and researchers around
the world with a range of co-curricular student programs that foster talent development and recruitment.
Launched with a generous gift from Wharton alumnus Art Bilger and his wife, Dahlia, and an executive partnership with Omnicom Group, Inc., WCAI has a broad impact on the practice of data-driven business decision-making, and
the dissemination of relevant insights to managers, students and policymakers.
