Purpose of Scholarship
The Domaine Scholarship Program seeks to reward and support one student per semester that is actively pursuing an undergraduate degree in exchange for a thoughtful research and perspective piece on the buying patterns of the next generation of consumers.
Through this scholarship program, we are looking to tap into the fresh perspectives and insights of today's college and university students. As a leading Shopify agency, we want to understand this generation's shopping behaviors and preferences as we design and develop the ecommerce shopping experiences of the future, rewarding one innovative mind per semester with a $2,000 scholarship.
