Protopia - AI-powered donor experiences

Case Study
The London School of Economics

The London School of Economics (LSE) is a globally renowned institution, consistently ranked among the top universities in the world. With over 70% of its 11,000 students coming from outside the United Kingdom, LSE offers a truly diverse and international experience. The school boasts a faculty of over 3,000 members, including leading experts in economics, politics, law, sociology, and other social sciences. LSE’s research impact is significant, with over 97% of its research being internationally recognized, and more than 50% classified as world-leading or internationally excellent.

Scaling networking & volunteering

As one of the fastest-growing, global universities in the world in an active campaign, the alumni leadership was looking for innovative ways to: 

  • Support its goal of 100,000 volunteer hours to strenghten its donor pipeline.
  • Boost alumni engagement without adding significantly more staff.
  • Engage a diverse and global alumni & student population in 150+ countries.
  • Reduce the time & effort required for connecting alumni and students (about 20 minutes per match).

Innovating through simple, app-less engagement

The LSE team chose Protopia’s AI technology to help it scale networking and alumni volunteering to its entire community.

  • No new app to sign up for or use for busy + diverse constituents.
  • Simple and impactful volunteering right from their email.
  • One-to-many networking rather than time-consuming structured mentorship.
  • AI-powered automation reduces staff effort.

Boosting volunteering, data quality, and donor relationships

LSE continues to expand Protopia to make its global alumni network available to its entire community of future, current, and past students, generating (on average) annually based on 1,400+ questions from alumni and students: 

alumni have been delivered volunteer opportunities
0
alumni volunteer hours have been generated

Equally important, satisfaction amongst graduates and students is consistently high at over 90%. 

Protopia has created alumni engagement tools that I couldn’t even dream of a decade ago….
