LETTER FROM THE CHAIR
Dear FNAME,
Greetings from New York City. It is hard to believe that another academic year just ended. As you all know, the month of May also means graduation. We are very proud to see our students complete their degrees and leave Fordham ready to pursue their dreams in the United States, China, India, Brazil, Belgium or wherever they may go. Congratulations to Class of 2019!
Spring ’19 was a very busy time for our marketing area and faculty as we organized and hosted many successful events including global conferences, summits, thinks tanks, panels, etc. The Global Conference on Creating Value and the Global Business Anthropology Summit were two such events that brought together many academics and business professionals from all over the world. You can read more about those events under the Hot Topics section.
As usual, our marketing faculty have spent their spring term working on various research projects. Under the Research section, you can read summaries of some of the selected publications of my colleagues.
As always, please accept this e-newsletter as an open invitation to share your ideas or suggestions for possible collaborations and joint projects with our area and/or individual faculty members. You can always contact me at kabadayi@fordham.edu. If you happen to be in New York City, feel free to stop by our campus and say "hi."
Best Regards,
Sertan Kabadayi, PhD
Professor of Marketing
Area Chair, Marketing
