TYPE OF ENGAGEMENT.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION.
Client's Project (Ongoing)
Feb 2023 to May 2023
TD Bank has a new innovation store that opened on Walnut Street six months ago. The space has been designed to support a range of activities, including facilitating meetings, conducting research, and prototyping new technologies. Given its location amongst Penn buildings, there is an opportunity to do more to engage the local community, specifically students. This project would involve getting to know the space and spending time connecting with students to understand how they might leverage the space for their needs while building a relationship with the bank.
