OtherThe theme of this year’s conference is Bridging Marketing Theory and Practice. This has always been a challenge for marketing academics and even more so in the post September 11 era. The world has changed irrevocably and marketing as a discipline is being challenged to respond appropriately. Professor Roger Layton, our keynote speaker, feels that marketing as a social and management discipline needs substantial rethinking if it is to be truly relevant to managers and policy makers in the emerging world context. So a creative bridging of marketing theory and practice could be the key to marketing’s relevance to the new worldview.
