JOHNS HOPKINS:  CONNECTING PEOPLE WITH THE PROMISE OF MEDICINE
Digital technologies are causing a revolution in health care. As the world's first academic medical center, Johns Hopkins is a world leader in medical discovery, educating the next generation of healthcare leaders, and providing innovative and compassionate patient care. Embracing digital and social technologies has enabled the people of Johns Hopkins Medicine to connect with people around the world to demonstrate the promise of medicine. Through conversations and storytelling they've extended their brand beyond the hospital doors or the web site to enable better patient service, to reach varied audiences, to educate and inform -- all while managing patient privacy and other challenges unique to the healthcare space.

UNDER ARMOUR:  SOCIAL FRANCHISES THAT LEVEL THE ADVERTISING PLAYGROUND
Social franchises are self-contained social programs under a single brand umbrella that activate audiences to further define and promote the brand.  Unlike advertising campaigns, social franchises are simply constructed to motivate audience participation and enable them to express the brand through content they create and share. These franchises are more powerful than ad campaigns because they are driven by the hearts and minds of the audience. And the brand pictures they paint starts and ends with the truth as the consumer sees it rather than how marketing organizations define it.  Discover how Under Armour leveraged social franchises instead of traditional ad campaigns to build their brand with campaigns such as “What’s Beautiful.”

LIFE ON THE FRONTLINES OF DIGITAL DISRUPTION
The wave of digital disruption changing consumer lives and upending even very traditional businesses hits the marketing and advertising departments first. These front line soldiers are closest to the consumer and have to adapt the quickest, using whatever digital tools and platforms consumers prefer. As a result, these exhausted troops have learned the most even as they still have to answer major questions like:

- What does it mean to have a digital relationship with today's consumer?
- How can marketing, product strategy, and IT finally work together to respond to consumer needs?
- What does the marketing expert of the future look like?

Forrester will share key examples of digitally disruptive trends and the lessons marketers can use when it comes to digital marketing today.
