Student engagement marketplace

Native is a student engagement marketplace that connects brands, universities, and students across higher education campuses. Native pays universities for the exclusive rights to run media and advertising campaigns on-campus and directly market to students. In return, universities get immediate financial value, plus measurable ongoing engagement and retention insights on their students via Native’s platform.

For Students, Native provides a one-stop shop for university social life via organised events, societies, pop-up shops and more – paid for by Brands. For Brands, Native provides a direct way to access millions of students via a data-driven advertising platform across both digital media and on-campus events.
