Marketing and International Business –
Discover the art of engaging people and communicating ideas, or learn the ins and outs of doing business in a global economy.
Marketing is about much more than just selling a product. It's about understanding customers' wants and needs, and the planning and process behind an exchange of goods, services or ideas with them. It's about identifying a need and filling it in a way that benefits everyone.
Changing technology and globalisation means it is important to understand how international business works. Success in international business depends on understanding the ways different cultures view the world, form business relationships, negotiate contracts and determine trade policy.
