Marketing in Platform Ecosystems: Secrets inside
Abstract: The phenomenal rise of platform ecosystems has transformed competition, defined new markets, drawn together a network of buyers, suppliers, and complementors, and created a new breed of start-up entrepreneurs. This paper complements prior research focusing on how marketing enables start-up entrepreneurs to generate and bring new business ideas to life, and scale businesses at incredible speed. This paper also brings into focus the psychological well-being of start-up entrepreneurs.

Prof. Dr. Carsten Baumgarth
New Wave of Brand Management: Strategy, Tactics, and Tools
Abstract: Brands are one of the most valuable assets of companies, cities, universities, etc. In the past, brand management was based on some simple “brand laws”. However, disruptive technologies (e.g., AI, Social Media, VR, robotics), increased competition (e.g., start-ups vs. companies, new international competitors), dramatic changes in consumer and employee behavior (e.g., sustainability, New Work movement) and instability of political and economic systems (e.g., trade wars, new political parties, and leaders) challenge these brand laws. The keynote speech will firstly discuss the new challenges for brand management. On this basis, the keynote will present “The New Brand Movement Manifesto”, which summarizes the main changes for brand management. Finally, the keynote will discuss five selected current issues of brand management in detail: (1) data literacy, (2) new technologies for the measurement of customer journeys and brand touchpoints, (3) brands with a conscious, (4) brand leveraging and (5) brand co-creation.
