In the corporate segment, we provide instructional and promotional projects for regional and international corporations. One example, DLA Piper’s project “A Conversation with Our Clients” was done by interviewing their top customers (i.e. Pfizer Pharmaceutical) to learn what service their clients expected from DLA to anchor their future and reshape the way. Verizon Foundation’s project Thinkfinity.org, the cornerstone of literacy, education and technology initiatives—was created to improve student achievement in traditional classroom settings and beyond by providing high-quality content and extensive professional development training.
