Cisco "Flips" in the Midst of Recession Marilyn Mersereau Kellogg Company - They're Grrrreat! As usual, Kellogg is delivering a nice treat to investors this year-profit. According to a Credit Suisse analyst quoted in Advertising Age, "no other company has consistently grown returns on invested capital." Despite strong competition for grocery shoppers' dollars from store brands, Kellogg has managed to thrive due to brand reinvestment, a strong product line, and incredible popularity among consumers. Vice President and Global Chief Marketing Officer Mark Baynes will demonstrate how Kellogg's commitment to advertising is integral to the company's business model and key to the continued success of the world's largest cereal maker. Mark Baynes Coca-Cola: Serving Refreshing Innovation One Market at a Time Coca-Cola's efforts to connect with consumers through the use of digital billboards, social media, in-store advertising, and high-profile television campaigns has certainly paid off. The world's largest drink maker leads globally in several key beverage categories and, according to The New York Times, the company continues to gain increased market share. As the beverage giant continues expansion into emerging markets abroad, Chief Marketing and Commercial Officer Joe Tripodi will explain how Coca-Cola is shifting to a "one on one" marketing focus and leading this new approach while working across many different geographies, cultures, and channels.

General Session contd. The Journey of Building a Brand that EnduresIn this keynote, attendees will learn about Dell's journey to evolve its brand to deliver results that endure over time and support business growth. In a hyper-changing landscape filled with new acquisitions and new offerings, how does Dell remain focused and steadfast in its marketing yet true to a heritage that brought the company so much success? Former CMO Erin Nelson will share the challenges that Dell has faced in recent years and talk about three strategic areas of change that Dell has focused on over the past 18 months. Dell SVP and CMO Karen Quintos will talk about the path forward to ensure that the company's brand remains relevant to every customer, employee and stakeholder long into the future. In the coming weeks, Erin will leave her role at Dell to become the CMO of Bazaarvoice. Erin Nelson Karen Quintos Are We Still on the Road to Economic Recovery? A year ago many people were sounding the "all clear" on the economy: the recession was over, GDP was growing again, and soon all would be right with the world. This was, it turns out, premature. Avoiding utter catastrophe isn't the same thing as engineering a recovery. We're now facing a very hard slog, made more difficult by vast disagreements about what governments should be doing. Are we still on the road to recovery or are we looking at a prolonged economic siege? Paul Krugman Growth by Leveraging Multicultural Insights With annual revenues of approximately $48 billion, Kraft Foods is a global powerhouse in snacks, confectionery and quick meals. The company is the world's second largest food company, making delicious products for billions of consumers in more than 160 countries. Here in the U.S., an increasing number of those consumers come from multicultural segments, a reality that will become clearer with the release of 2010 Census data early in 2011. Graciela Eleta, Senior Vice President of Brand Solutions at Univision Communications, will highlight strategies for marketing in a multicultural nation by offering key principles for success in developing a total market strategy. Kraft Foods Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer Mary Beth West will literally take us inside Hispanic lives to demonstrate how her organization is leveraging insights to consistently engage with Latina consumers in a meaningful and authentic way. Finally, moving from theory to practice, Howard Friedman will share the journey that Kraft Singles took to become a valued and trusted brand in Hispanic kitchens. Howard Friedman Graciela Eleta |
