Scotiabank Centre for Customer Analytics

The Scotiabank Centre for Customer Analytics (SCCA) at Smith School of Business brings together interdisciplinary teams of professors, graduate students, and analytics practitioners to collaborate on research, create new knowledge, and lead dialogue on practical applications of big data.

Initially founded in February 2016 following a $2.2 million gift from Scotiabank, the SCCA has already made a number of research contributions in the areas of pricing, revenue management, loyalty programs, adaptable database management systems, analytics and decision making, and ethics and AI.

In July 2019, Scotiabank reaffirmed its commitment to SCCA by pledging an additional $2 million, supporting the centre through to 2025. Over the coming years, SCCA will continue its dedication to building a community of data intensive users encouraging innovation across industries and delivering a reimagined customer experience.
