Corporate Citizenship
In striving to give back to the customer, partner, and local communities in a meaningful and sustained way, the company focuses on two key initiatives, the DemandTec Retail Challenge and a new partnership with the Labovitz School of Business & Economics (LSBE) at the University of Minnesota Duluth (UMD).
As the flagship corporate citizenship program, DemandTec launched and continues to expand the DemandTec Retail Challenge, a math and science scholarship competition for high school seniors. The competition has grown leaps and bounds, expanding the competition location footprint by more than 60 percent in last year and awarding more than $250,000 in college scholarship money since its inception in 2005.
DemandTec’s new partnership with LSBE at UMD is to support the university’s new Retail Marketing Analytics Program (ReMAP). As the first program of its kind, ReMAP will be offered as an undergraduate major and minor area of study through LSBE at UMD. ReMAP will provide undergraduate UMD students with an educational curriculum that can be directly applied to rewarding careers in the retail and consumer products industries.
