About WebMedia Challenge

The WebMedia Challenge was the first WebMedia community event focused on solving challenges resulting from the heterogeneous data stream that is generated in this hyper-connected world. This competition was held in partnership with Localiza through Localiza Labs’ Data Science and Analytics Directorate.
