Researchers from the Advances in Media Management (AiMM) research cluster have had 8 Abstracts (a 100% success rate) accepted for the forthcoming European Media Management Association conference in Belgium. This was a notable success for the group, bearing in mind that the rejection rate for all conference submissions was 24%. AiMM put their success down to research mentoring and introducing an internal peer review system within the group.
Congratulations go to: Dr Chris Chapleo (Media Branding), Dr Joyce Costello (CSR Practices in Media Firms), Dr Mona Sayed Esfahani (Media Branding); Graham Goode (Brand Orientation in Media Companies); Conor O’Kane (The Media Economics of Privacy); Dr John Oliver (Digital Media Transformations).
