The Marketing Management Association continues to meet this challenge with the 22nd Fall Educators conference. Now in our third decade, this event provides our membership with valuable insights and tools to meet the dramatic, disruptive changes taking place in business and in marketing practice. Our theme this year, “Hot Topics within Marketing Education,” captures the imagination and ingenuity needed to ensure a viable future for tomorrow’s marketing professionals. MMA would not serve the important role it does in the profession without our terrific members. We thank MMA’s membership for our remarkable growth over the years and continued value as the premiere source of marketing education best practices.
