(*)The course focuses on the interplay between marketing instruments and their application in practice, augmented with current trends and contemporary issues. Overall, it makes the critical connection between business and marketing strategy as well as strategic and operational dimensions. Throughout the different stages of the course students are exposed to a real-life case and empirically evaluate marketing related issues through constructing, collecting, analysing and interpreting primary data (qualitative and quantitative research methods). As an outcome of this evaluation students propose ways on how to deploy marketing instruments to develop, communicate and deliver improved value propositions related to particular case settings.
