The theme of the conference is “Corporate and Marketing Communications in Times of Growth and Times of Crisis”. At present we experience a financial crisis flooding the global community and leaving in its wake severe economic hardship for companies and individuals alike. In this context, the pivot of the CMC conference 2010 is to examine the role of corporate communication and marketing communication when times of economic growth turn into dire recession: What characterizes the strategy with regards to corporate identity, image and reputation as well as marketing when business is prosperous? And what happens to these activities as the company turnover drops and consumers and investors lose trust? Do the communicative perspectives and strategies alter? And how is the global scene affected? How can corporate communication and marketing communication contribute to the restoration of stability and prosperity and re-establishment of trust – without losing the new found focus on CSR and climate change? Our hope is that the CMC 2010 conference at the Aarhus School of Business will help shed light on these issues. Enjoy the conference and your stay in Denmark. conference chairs tino Bech-larsen finn franDsen associate professor, phD professor Department of marketing centre for corporate and statistics communication 3 conference program cmc 2010: corporate and marketing communications in times of growth and times of crisis general information conference conference location The Aarhus School of Business (ASB) is situated on Fuglesangs Allé on the cor- ner of Vestre Ringgade and Viborgvej.
