The Eccles Adobe Social Impact Challenge brought together students from the University of Utah to draw on their creativity, digital skills, and entrepreneurial spirit in support of a worthy cause.
The Information Systems program at the Eccles School partnered with Adobe and Tech-Moms to host a competition where student teams created a website to promote Tech-Moms’ mission. Tech-Moms is a non-profit organization focused on empowering women transitioning into tech roles and achieving long-term career success.
Students used Adobe Express to create compelling recruiting websites using the data and assets from Tech-Moms. These teams not only gained valuable digital storytelling skills but also contributed to a meaningful social cause. As they worked to build these websites, they were helping to cultivate a supportive community of women and creating opportunities for future success.
This year, the competition was opened to both graduate and undergraduate students to participate in. Overall, there were a total of 100 students making up 37 teams that competed in the week-long Eccles-Adobe Social Impact Challenge.
The challenge was a powerful and inspiring event. It showcased the potential of combining digital skills, creativity, and community support to empower women in tech. This case competition was more than just a challenge; it was an example of the positive change that can be achieved when individuals come together with a shared purpose.
