About the company
Native is a platform designed to connect students with amazing experiences whilst at university, revolutionising the student experience and student economy for students, Students' Unions and advertisers.
Over the past 18-months, we have built long-term partnerships with 75+ Students’ Unions - three in four of which have trusted native exclusively with their media rights.
We’re well on the way to unify and streamline on-and-offline media channels to give advertisers, like Burger King, GoPuff and Odeon, frictionless access to 2.66 million students - and unlock additional revenues for Students' Unions to reinvest in the student experience. It’s what we call the native win-win-win.
