The Next Forum

The Brand Forum on Cause Marketing at Sun Microsystems on March 18th

 

Video Highlights now available!

 

Brand professionals and non-profit managers spent a morning learning about what motivates people to give, how companies align themselves with causes, and what non-profits look for in a relationship with a corporate sponsor.

The event began with a fascinating presentation by Jennifer Aaaker on "The Psychology of Giving." Professor Aaker's presentation is available for download in PDF format.

The presentation was followed by a panel discussion moderated by Melissa Drydahl, with panelists representing both the corporate and non-profit side of cause marketing sharing their perspectives on aligning cause marketing efforts with brand strategy.
