Introduction

POSTING TYPE: Calls: Conferences

Author: Liliana Bove

The Marketing academics from the University of Melbourne warmly invite you to join us at the 2021 ANZMAC Conference

2020 and 2021 have certainly lived up to our conference theme of “Something Different”. But we are a resilient team and with your continued support we are positioned to deliver the exceptional week-long research program we promised.

As a city well versed in hard ‘lockdowns’ to curb outbreaks of the virus we are catering for the continued uncertainty and disruption by planning a hybrid event, an in-person and online experience with a purpose built, engaging event platform. Paper presentations will be online, pre-recorded or on-site.

Registration fees begin at $200 AUD and be sure that if we need to revert to fully online, all in-person registrants will be refunded the difference between registration costs.

About the Program

Dates: Friday evening 26 November to Sunday 28 November
