PNC Hosts 4th Annual Corporate Startup Lab Case Competition

Caitlin Kizielewicz

PNC partnered with 麻豆村’s Corporate Startup Lab (CSL) to host the Final Round of the 4th Annual CSL Case Competition, challenging students to design AI-powered solutions that build trust in the banking industry.

This year’s theme, Trusted AI in Banking, asked students to address customer pain points in debt pay down, first home savings, and small business cash flow management.

A total of 77 teams participated across the competition, with six finalist teams advancing to the Swartz Center for Entrepreneurship for the final pitch. Finalists presented their innovative ideas to a panel of judges including PNC’s Hemanth Gorur and Cynthia Wood, Deloitte’s Jonathan Valenti (sponsor of Corporate Startup Week), and Carnegie Mellon’s JJ Xu.

Special thanks to Rose Kopp, Carrie Ann Zayas, Burton Hollifield, Claire Prykull (Henderson), Terri A. Deasy, Erik Solinger, Kate (Neal) Meeuf, and many others for helping make this event a success.
