Course Content Summary
By focusing on the four Ps of the marketing mix, as well as on the circular relationship that links firms and markets together, the course analyses several legal topics. First, how US and EU privacy laws affect the way whereby firms collect, storage and use data, in order to profile their actual and potential customers. Second, how US and EU trademark laws allow protecting, developing and exploiting common and famous brands, in case via brand licensing and other kinds of contracts, such as merchandising ones. Third, what US and EU pieces of self regulations, public laws, and private laws govern adverting and sponsorship contracts. Fourth, how US and EU pieces of law preside over some distribution contracts, such as the franchising one. In addition, the course does not overlook the role that the Internet plays in the development of new marketing activities as well as the novel legal challenges (some of them mingled with copyright laws as well) that such activities launch.Detailed Description of Assessment Methods
