Vngle was honored to serve as a capstone sponsor for the Columbia University SPS MS in Strategic Communication program!

Our ask was BIG: How can Vngle revitalize its communication strategies to expand engagement and representation across America's most overlooked communities?

This amazing group of Master's students, faculty, and researchers created strategies to help our team make that happen in BIG ways. We thank our capstone team Arion, Jada, Mandy, and Sylvia for everything they accomplished with their research! We also thank all the Columbia faculty and researchers who helped make this possible.

The Vngle capstone produced new original data sourced from 400 people across 13 states, along with interviews and focus group insights that will kickstart a new era of connectivity for our team. Stay tuned as we bring these strategies to life over the coming months!
