I recently attended ANZMAC, the academic marketing conference for Australia and New Zealand. It was great to be in rooms full of marketers talking about deep and meaningful marketing stuff while imbibing lots of champagne. I gave two papers there. One was on Service Dominant Logic and the Infinite Game and the other was on my main area of research, Customer Evangelists.
Some great people and scholars I met there: Elizabeth Dunlop (CSU), Professor Mark Uncles (UNSW), Professor Mark Laswon (U of Otago), Dr Chris Dubelaar (Bond), Associate Professor Francis Farrelly (Monash), Sabrina Mohd Rashid, John Turnbull, Kelly Choong and Trent Hennessey amongst others.
