Innovative marketers move business forward. Inventive academics move the knowledge of customer behavior and markets forward. Unfortunately, between them often lies a gap. The China India Insights Program and its sponsors have an opportunity to bridge that gap with an unprecedented partnership between leading marketers to solve consumer challenges.
The program acts as an early stage learning lab for guiding marketers, providing
- Leading edge theory that can identify new insights into customer behavior into emerging markets
- Collaboration with faculty who are leaders in knowledge generation and its application to real world challenges
- Academic rigor of cross-disciplininary problem solving, deep data sharing and innovative research methodologies
This partnership, driven by a passion for new knowledge and practical application fundamentally changes the way customer behavior and marketing analytics are leveraged in the real world.
