These profiles come packed with<strong> rich, actionable insights<\/strong> that help VIT leverage its alumni more effectively. Beyond just building profiles, Vaave Magic has also identified <strong>top alumni like CXOs, HR leaders, and professionals working in Fortune 500 companies<\/strong>, opening doors for strategic alumni engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Background &amp; Challenges&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Vellore Institute of Technology Alumni Association (VITAA)<\/strong> has a large, diverse alumni community spread across industries. To leverage this network effectively, the association wanted to build an updated alumni database. While many alumni were registered on the existing alumni portal, the information wasn\u2019t of much use. Crucial details like <strong>current workplace, designation, and skills were either outdated or missing <\/strong>from most profiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>VITAA was looking for a solution that could address their biggest pain points: an updated alumni database and actionable insights for alumni engagement. But they didn\u2019t have the resources or expertise to solve it on their own.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Solution: An Updated Alumni Database for VITAA<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When VITAA shared their challenge of not maintaining an updated alumni database, we suggested building alumni profiles through <strong><em>Vaave Magic as a Service<\/em><\/strong>. As part of this, our team identified <strong>alumni via LinkedIn, collected publicly available LinkedIn URLs<\/strong>, and built complete alumni profiles enriched with actionable insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">These profiles were instantly created using Vaave Magic, an ingenious mix of AI algorithms and our homegrown alumni database-building software. In the first phase alone, we built <strong>10,047 alumni profiles<\/strong>, with many more to be added in the project's next phases.&nbsp;<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Value Created Through Vaave Magic<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Vaave Magic generates detailed alumni insights powered by AI.
