This research group fosters greater understanding and appreciation of the impact of marketing and branding to the world of academia and practice. We achieve this though both publishing in scholarly journals and contributing to the world of practice through applied research and consultancy.
Research focuses particularly on the following areas:
Our researchers publish their work across marketing journals including Industrial Marketing Management, European Journal of Marketing, Journal of Marketing Management, Annals of Tourism Research, Journal of General Management, Journal of International Business Studies and International Marketing Review. We are also active as Guest Editors of Special issues of leading international journals such as Journal of World Business, Business Ethics Quarterly, Journal of Business Research and International Journal of Tourism Research.
If you are interested in the work of the group, please contact Professor TC Melewar t.c.melewar@mdx.ac.uk or Professor Charles Dennis c.dennis@mdx.ac.uk.
