Digital Equity Challenge: Bridging the Digital Divide with UMass Lowell Innovation Hub

The challenge sought to empower communities with innovative digital solutions. In 2022, the challenge achieved a competitive pool of submissions, driven by a strategic campaign that combined organic and paid social media efforts. Tomo360 was at the forefront of this endeavor, crafting compelling marketing collateral, infographics, and flyers to promote the challenge.
