Value Creation 4.0 is a marketing guide to the age of the fourth industrial revolution (‘Industry 4.0’). This title draws attention to the situation which poses new challenges and risks for the whole of humanity. The book takes an essentially practice-oriented approach. The book intends to highlight the importance of the topic, define its conceptual framework and present its practical applications. The book is therefore primarily recommended for practitioners. The topics of the book together with the supporting exhibits and cases – which also include international dimensions – provide information for them that can help increase their competitiveness. The book can also be very handy in higher education. Whole courses can be built on it, as the book comprises 4 parts and 14 chapters which can provide the basis for lectures. Each part is illustrated with cases, and some of the more than 30 exhibits could be used for the efficient processing of the material and for further reflection.

In this visionary book, C. K. Prahalad and Venkat Ramaswamy explore why, despite unbounded opportunities for innovation, companies still can't satisfy customers and sustain profitable growth. The explanation for this apparent paradox lies in recognizing the structural changes brought about by the convergence of industries and technologies; ubiquitous connectivity and globalization; and, as a consequence, the evolving role of the consumer from passive recipient to active co-creator of value. Managers need a new framework for value creation. Increasingly, individual customers interact with a network of firms and consumer communities to co-create value. No longer can firms autonomously create value. Neither is value embedded in products and services per se. Products are but an artifact around which compelling individual experiences are created. As a result, the focus of innovation will shift from products and services to experience environments that individuals can interact with to co-construct their own experiences. These personalized co-creation experiences are the source of unique value for consumers and companies alike. In this emerging opportunity space, companies must build new strategic capital—a new theory on how to compete. This book presents a detailed view of the new functional, organizational, infrastructure, and governance capabilities that will be required for competing on experiences and co-creating unique value.

Marketing is the crucial connection between company and customer; no enterprise can expect to succeed without a substantial investment in its marketing efforts. Not surprisingly, marketing is one of the core areas of study in the hundreds of business schools and MBA programs around the world, and a vital department of virtually every business. This dynamic set showcases the most current trends, issues, ideas, and practices in marketing, especially as the field evolves in the context of globalization and advances in technology. From branding to public relations, e-tailing to customer-retention strategies, overseas expansion to promoting sports products, Marketing in the 21st Century covers the full spectrum of marketing-related issues, in their business and cultural contexts. Written by leading academic thinkers and business practitioners, the four volumes highlight emerging and innovative practices, illustrated through examples from around the world. Volume 1, New World Marketing, provides insights and tools for conducting business internationally, with emphasis on market research, market entry, and distribution strategies, and coverage of emerging markets, including China, India, and Eastern Europe. Volume 2, Interactive and Multi-Channel Marketing, explores the impact of new technologies on acquiring and retaining customers, including discussion of direct and interactive marketing techniques, customer data analysis, and ethics in marketing. Volume 3, Company and Customer Relations, deals with such issues as reputation and trust building, relationship marketing, sales management, and customer privacy. Volume 4, Integrated Marketing Communication, covers consumer demographics, multi-media communication strategies, and micromarketing. Collectively, these volumes represent the state of the art in the field. They are an essential resource for anyone studying, teaching, researching, or practicing the art and science of marketing.
