Capstone Project
PICK A TOPIC OF YOUR OWN as long as it involved Data Analytics of a start-up company.
This will be at least 15-page report which consolidates all of the other reports into one sign big report and reads from start-to-finish like a polished professional technical explanation of the business you are describing.
Adjust each of the smaller reports (Assignments 2-5) to eliminate any duplication that might exist - do not simply stack one on top of the other.
Make the whole thing readable and logical from start-to-finish. Ask yourself "Would a Venture Capitalist actually buy into this?"
