Our affinitization process started with around 230 raw yellow data points where we narrowed down to 32 most relevant and important findings.



With the synthesized 32 data points we organized it into Super relevant, relevant, and not so relevant categories to guide us to create powerful insights and HMW questions to guide our design process further on.
