APPENDIX:

  1. Corporate sponsorship is a form of advertising

in which companies pay to be associated with

certain events. When the sponsorship of a

nonprofit or charitable event is involved, the

sponsorship activity is often referred to as event

marketing or cause marketing. Corporate

sponsorship has been growing rapidly in recent

years, faster, in fact, than the growth in overall

corporate advertising in the late 1990s. According

to Trevor Hartland, writing in the International

Journal of Sports Marketing & Sponsorship,

“global sponsorship reached an all-time high

of $26.2 billion in 2003 (INC, 2015).

  1. Quotes (Barns)

6 charts (Barns/Neilsen) – Important bullet points

  • “How to find the next disruptive innovation while reacting to the disruptive innovations of others.
  • To use the language of the conference, how can one “ride the disruption wave”?
  • Obviously, this is an enormously important topic for us.
  • For instance, what we at Nielsen call media fragmentation is in fact an ongoing process of disruptive innovation.
  • And it presents us with both challenges and opportunities
  • —namely, the struggle to avoid being disrupted and the chance to be creatively disruptive.
  • The secret, of course, is to do both at once by being good at disrupting ourselves.
  • Throughout our existence as a company, we’ve done this well.
  • Nielsen is a 91-year-old company, but our history is really that of a sequence of different companies,
  • each evolving and emerging from the previous one.By renewing and remaking ourselves,
  • we’ve not just survived, we’ve thrived. And we are in the process of doing it again,
  • as we evolve into a more digital company” (Barns, 11.13. 2014).
