The INTERNATIONAL COLLOQUIUM ON DESIGN, BRANDING AND MARKETING was established to explore aspects of potentially integrative theory and praxis, relative to research methodologies and methods; the aim being to cross the perceived boundaries between marketing and design and develop further dialogue relative to complementary approaches in these areas. This includes the development and promotion of branding and identity, promotion, product development, retail design, online and multimedia consumer engagement academic work of merit. The 2017 COLLOQUIUM aims particularly to focus on aspects around the creative process relating to branding, marketing and design, exploring potential or actual interdisciplinary connections between research, practice and teaching to inform the orientation of marketing and design professional practice and teaching curricula. The Colloquium seeks not only to bring people together across such disciplines, but also crucially to provide enhanced opportunities for publication.
