Powerbank for University of Newcastle
The College of International Education at the University of Newcastle serves a diverse student body, particularly international students who are navigating both their studies and a new country. As part of their initiatives to provide a warm welcome and to enhance the experiences of these new students, they sought giveaways that students on the go would surely love. So, they ordered 100 Octavius 800mAh power banks from Cubic Promote, each pad printed with the University’s logo. These power banks were chosen for their practical value—students often rely on their smartphones, tablets, and laptops for studying, socializing, and exploring Newcastle. However, keeping their devices charged can become a challenge with long days on campus or out in the city.
The university distributed the custom power banks during orientation week. These custom power banks made the new international students feel welcomed and cared for. They helped them stay connected to their classmates, university resources, and their families back home. By gifting them with something functional, they also made these students feel supported throughout the school year. Students continued to use them on campus and around town, keeping the university’s logo visible and at the top of their minds.
