Together as a team, Peter Li, Heidi Xiong and I dug deep into the data sets to produce a well-rounded presentation to capture first place in the Sunrun challenge.

We were assigned to group”Sunrun”. Sunrun has grown from a small startup founded in 2007 to the largest residential solar provider in the U.S. with more than 220,000 customers in 23 states and Puerto Rico. Wheat’s presence gave students insights into what it takes to launch a start-up and scale it up successfully.

We focused on crafting a coherent story that showed our understanding of the business, and solutions that were developed with their intentions in mind.
