Objectives

A balanced approach to Branding, combining theory and practice, for students who aim to work in Marketing, Advertising, Communication or Strategy. Students (in teams of approximately 5 individuals) will be asked to develop a brand´s platform, using the main Branding concepts [Equity, Image, Identity, Positioning...], as they are presented in Theoretical Classes. The platform will include analyzing the current image and identity of a selected brand and suggesting an improved identity/positioning and a Marketing and Communication plan for the brand. Unilever is our partner for this practical part of the Course.
