I had the honour of being invited as a guest speaker at the London School of Science and Technology, where I shared insights on international marketing with Level 6 Business students and Master’s students in International Management.
Global Marketing Experience and Expertise
With a background in Marketing and Digital Communication and academic experience in Brazil and Portugal, I brought a wealth of international knowledge to the session. My career across different markets highlighted the complexities of digital marketing, from strategic planning to cross-border communication.
Key Takeaways: International Marketing Trends and Challenges
One of the main highlights of my presentation was the importance of adapting strategies to cultural contexts. Marketing campaigns that succeed in one region may fail in another if businesses overlook cross-cultural communication.
Practical insights I shared included:
The role of market analysis in global strategies
How to adapt campaigns to different cultural environments
Case studies of successful international marketing strategies
Why Cross-Cultural Marketing Matters
Understanding cultural nuances is no longer optional, it’s a necessity in a globalised business landscape. My talk emphasised how businesses can bridge gaps and create meaningful connections with audiences worldwide.
Impact on Students and Future Professionals
The session was designed not only to share knowledge but also to inspire confidence in students pursuing careers in international business and marketing management. By connecting theory with practice, I aimed to prepare them for the challenges of today’s interconnected markets.
Final Thoughts: Building the Future of Global Marketing
This event was a testament to the London School of Science and Technology’s commitment to holistic business education. I look forward to delivering more sessions that connect students with global marketing strategies and real-world expertise.
