Meet our Intern of the Week, Matthew Zhang, from Harvard University! This past summer, Matthew completed a marketing internship with Pliant in Berlin. Matthew’s main project was proposing a marketing strategy for Pliant’s entry into the UK market—a task that required both extensive research and creativity. According to his supervisor, “Matthew absorbed the full scope of what Pliant does in a short amount of time, offering insightful observations and contributing to the strategic direction of the marketing team.” Despite the demands of his primary project, Matthew didn’t stop there. He also supported smaller tasks across other teams, including sales and partnerships, and engaged in meaningful conversations with the company's founders. He was said to have made a positive impact on the team, and that he has a bright future ahead. Matthew, your networking skills and marketing talent are sure to open doors. We're excited to see where your journey takes you next! Each week, we’ll spotlight an intern and the incredible projects they’ve worked on at their startups. Stay tuned!
