ANZMAC / Korean Scholars of Marketing Science Conference report

The Global Marketing Conference is hosted by the Korean Scholars of Marketing Science and held once every two years. In July this year the co-hosts in Seoul were the Japan Society of Marketing and Distribution, the European Marketing Academy, the International Textile and Apparel Association, and ANZMAC. This makes it one the very largest Marketing conferences in the world, with 1,100 submissions from 44 countries (an acceptance rate of 50%) and 110 sessions. Your International subcommittee of the Executive, of Roger Marshall and Richard Fletcher, arranged for a very successful ANZMAC Symposium, on Co-creation, within the larger GMC conference. Roger is also on the Board of KSMS, which helped smooth the way. The Conference was brilliantly organised, with excellent cultural entertainment, great food, a very high standard of paper and was held in the huge COEX complex in the heart of Seoul.

Our Janet McColl Kennedy acted as Chair of the ANZMAC Symposium, collected and edited the papers, and introduced the topic and speakers in collaboration with Steve Vargo, whilst Ken Deans was a main Conference Co-Chair. Roger was lucky enough to win the “Best Overall Conference Reviewer” Award, whilst Ken was kept busy plotting and planning further cooperation with our Asian colleagues (more of that from him later). The list of Colloquium participants, below, shows a good representation of ANZMAC and Friends, and the standard of paper did you all proud, trust me! ANZMAC is busy keeping our flag flying in Asia!
