Keynote Meeting

Marketing in the Gig Economy

Imagine the near present and future of marketing: A discipline predicated on defining service products as capabilities that can be quilted into new features and/or options resulting in new products, as well as reuse/repackage of existing service products. If we expand that concept, it forces us to think about the framework of service products and how we can identify and structure those products modularly so that their various features can be mixed and matched, removed, replaced, etc. That modularity helps with adapting and responding to evolving market needs.

This presentation will address what the “Gig Economy” is and how marketing will need to respond to the opportunities that arise from it.
