Am dritten Freitag im November geht das Münsteraner Marketing-Symposium in die nächste Runde. Was erwartet Sie? Spannende Anwendungsbeispiele und Erkenntnisse, die Diskussion konkreter Themen mit Experten in kleiner Runde auf den Marktplätzen und der Austausch mit Gleichgesinnten sowie ehemaligen Kommilitonen beim abendlichen Get Together.

IfM-Mitarbeiter Julian Allendorf stellte auf dem 12. wissenschaftlichen interdisziplinären Kongress für Dialogmarketing am 27. September 2017 in Kassel die Studie „Warenkorb-Abbrüche im Onlinehandel – Warum Shopper nicht zu Käufern werden und wie Unternehmen reagieren können“ den Kongressteilnehmern vor. Gemeinsam mit Professor Manfred Krafft und Mirja Bues untersucht er „Warenkorbabbrüche“, bei denen der Kunde im Onlineshop bereits Produkte ausgewählt und in den virtuellen Warenkorb gelegt hat, dann aber den Kaufprozess nicht abschließt.

From August 31 to September 1, Julian Allendorf, doctoral candidate at the Institute of Marketing (IfM), participated in the second EMAC Research Camp in Vienna. The EMAC Junior Faculty & Doctoral Student Research Camp is an initiative by the European Marketing Academy (EMAC) with the aim of raising the research capability of new/young researchers embarking on an academic career. Besides worldwide leading faculty in the field of marketing, 19 doctoral students and junior researchers were among the workshop participants.

As a tribute to the great success of last year’s conference BigData.Big Movies – How Algorithms transform the Film and TV Industry, the complete conference proceedings are now available to everyone -- and they are for free.

Immediately prior to the annual conference of the European Marketing Academy (EMAC), the 30th EMAC Doctoral Colloquium was held from May 21 to May 23 in Groningen, the Netherlands. The colloquium was organized by the European Institute for advanced Studies in Management (EIASM) and the EMAC in collaboration with the University of Groningen. Competition among all submissions for the available slots was fierce and Julian Allendorf from the Institute of Marketing was selected as one of 60 doctoral students among an overall of 136 applicants.

In recognition of his significant and enduring contributions to the European Marketing Academy (EMAC) and his achievements of high levels of scholarship and as a leader in the field of marketing, Manfred Krafft has been appointed as EMAC fellow. Together with him, Ajay Kohli (Atlanta/USA, previous editor of Journal of Marketing) and Peter Verhoef (Groningen, VP Membership of EMAC) have been appointed as new fellows of EMAC. EMAC represents more than 1,000 European scholars in Marketing. The board of fellows consists of 17 recognized scholars, who stay fellows until their retirement.
