Abstract

The course introduces the basic theories and concepts underlying the state of the art marketing. Marketing Innovation is a 21st century topic with a rapidly developing instrumental framework. In the rapidly changing economic environment, and the growing interdependence of market players, the market resistance to innovation becomes only stronger. In the process of innovation management, companies sometimes underestimate the role of product marketing and further product development based on anticipated demand. As the market becomes more consumer-centric, the companies face constant challenges to develop new instruments of bringing innovations to market. The course thus provides insights to students how innovative companies can adopt the comprehensive approach to their go-to-market techniques, develop relationship-based marketing instruments, and processes of value co-creation in order to shape consumer experience. It indicates marketing innovation as the key element of innovation management and justifies the need for companies to respond to changing consumer demands and expectations. The course is a major component of the concept of innovation. The learners get to know the basic theories and instrument of the diffusion of innovations and understand its key drivers - including the technology push, the market pull as well as economic, social and institutional factors.
