Mobile Smart Fundamentals Mma Members Edition June 2014
MOBILE SMART FUNDAMENTALS MMA MEMBERS EDITION JUNE 2014 messaging . advertising . apps . mcommerce www.mmaglobal.com NEW YORK • LONDON • SINGAPORE • SÃO PAULO MOBILE MARKETING ASSOCIATION JUNE 2014 REPORT The Global Board Given our continuous march toward providing marketers the tools they need to successfully leverage mobile, it’s tempting to give you another week-by-week update on our DRUMBEAT. But, as busy as that’s been, I’d like to focus my introduction for this month’s Mobile Smart Fundamentals on the recent announcement we made regarding our Global Board. Our May 6th announcement that we would be welcoming the first CMO in the MMA’s history to take up the position of Global Chairperson was significant for many reasons, not least of which is the incredible insight and leadership that John Costello brings to the role. This was also one of our first steps to truly aligning the MMA to a new marketer-first mission. Subsequently, on June 25th, we were pleased to announce the introduction, re-election and continuation of committed leaders to the MMA’s Global Board (read full press release here). But perhaps most significantly of all, we welcomed a number of new Brand marketers and that list of Brands on the Global Board now includes The Coca-Cola Company, Colgate-Palmolive, Dunkin’ Brands, General Motors, Mondelez International, Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Visa and Walmart. http://www.mmaglobal.com/about/board-of-directors/global To put this into context, the board now comprises 80% CEOs and Top 100 Marketers vs. three years ago where only 19% of the board comprised CEOs and a single marketer, with the majority being mid-level managers. -
Proptech 3.0: the Future of Real Estate
University of Oxford Research PropTech 3.0: the future of real estate PROPTECH 3.0: THE FUTURE OF REAL ESTATE WWW.SBS.OXFORD.EDU PROPTECH 3.0: THE FUTURE OF REAL ESTATE PropTech 3.0: the future of real estate Right now, thousands of extremely clever people backed by billions of dollars of often expert investment are working very hard to change the way real estate is traded, used and operated. It would be surprising, to say the least, if this burst of activity – let’s call it PropTech 2.0 - does not lead to some significant change. No doubt many PropTech firms will fail and a lot of money will be lost, but there will be some very successful survivors who will in time have a radical impact on what has been a slow-moving, conservative industry. How, and where, will this happen? Underlying this huge capitalist and social endeavour is a clash of generations. Many of the startups are driven by, and aimed at, millennials, but they often look to babyboomers for money - and sometimes for advice. PropTech 2.0 is also engineering a much-needed boost to property market diversity. Unlike many traditional real estate businesses, PropTech is attracting a diversified pool of talent that has a strong female component, representation from different regions of the world and entrepreneurs from a highly diverse career and education background. Given the difference in background between the establishment and the drivers of the PropTech wave, it is not surprising that there is some disagreement about the level of disruption that PropTech 2.0 will create. -

Is the Public Motivated to Engage in Open Data Innovation? Gustaf Juell-Skielse1, Anders Hjalmarsson2, Paul Johannesson1, and Daniel Rudmark2 1 Department of Computer and Systems Sciences, Stockholm University Stockholm, Sweden {gjs,pajo}@dsv.su.se 2 Viktoria Swedish ICT / University of Borås, Gothenburg, Sweden {anders,daniel}@viktoria.se Abstract. Governments aim to increase democracy by engaging the public in using open data to develop mobile apps and citizen services. They make infor- mation available (open data) and organize innovation contests to stimulate in- novation with the goal to make new services available for the public to use. But will the public take on the challenge to both develop and provide services to each other? In this paper we use a case study from public transportation to in- vestigate the motivation for individuals and teams to participate in innovation contests. The results show that the motivation for participating is primarily re- lated to fun and enjoyment. We argue that in order to better meet the goals of open data innovation, governments need to follow through the full service in- novation cycle and also care for making citizen coproduction in the execution and monitoring phases fun and enjoyable. Currently there is little chance for participants to make profit on a competitive market so governments need to provide other mechanisms to ensure service provisioning. For future research it is suggested to investigate how the later stages of open data innovation can be supported in order to meet the overall goals of open data innovation. Keywords: Open data, citizen coproduction, innovation contest, motivation, e-service, mobile application.
