TWO PROTOPIA CUSTOMERS WIN CASE CIRCLE OF EXCELLENCE AWARDS FOR THEIR USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO SCALE ENGAGEMENT

By MAX LEISTEN

I am beyond thrilled to share (and celebrate) that two of Protopia’s customers were recognized with a CASE Circle Of Excellence award for their innovative use of AI (Protopia!) in alumni engagement.

I am not really shocked by this recognition because the teams at The London School of Economics and Northwestern University are visionary, passionate, and persistent – call them “troublemakers” (remember this amazing Apple campaign?). The right ingredients to successfully challenge the status quo.

And both continue to push Protopia to think bigger about how AI could be used to build more and better relationships between alumni, students, fundraisers, donors, faculty, and staff. Because communities have never been more important.

Thank you for thinking differently and your fearless pursuit of excellence.

The London School Of Economics

Innovators Wallis Spence, Alumni Engagement Projects Manager, and Ceri Bibey-Jones, Head of Alumni Engagement, spearheaded LSE’s launch of Protopia in October 2022. And it all started with knowing what would NOT work to scale engagement to its rapidly-growing alumni community.

In the CASE Gold Award recognition judges stated:

"The London School of Economics has taken a proactive approach to adopting artificial intelligence. By navigating new territories and adapting technology, the institution enhanced its engagement with its expanding community of alumni and students. The judges are excited to see the long-term outcomes and connections this initiative will foster."

Northwestern University

I’ll admit that Cassie Petoskey, Director of Alumni Engagement and the Austin J. Waldron Student-Alumni Connections Program, has been a long-time fan of Protopia. In fact, the moment she learned that “AI can be used for good” and help her create authentic, meaningful connections between alumni and students, she was sold.

In the CASE Silver Award recognition judges stated:

"This program leveraged AI for meaningful alumni engagement, demonstrating impressive participation metrics. Testimonials highlighted the program's potential impact and provided deeper insights into its operations. This innovative approach is not only inspiring but also indicative of a future trend in the industry."

Protopia’s artificial intelligence technology makes it truly simple for everyone in your community to connect for advice and support. Without another app to sign up for or learn.
