Professor Mohr will explore the many positive and negative roles of marketing in society, from commercializing revolutionary scientific inventions to the minutia of annoying TV ads. In addition, her talk will emphasize the intersection of new technology trends and marketing. Whether you are a scientist, a member of the business community, a student, or a humanities professor, bring your questions, your biases, and your curiosity. What would a world without marketing be like?
