The product category can be finalized after discussion with the instructor.
There are a number of key points you must pay attention to as you prepare your presentations:
1. The presentations will last 20-25 minutes, with an additional 5 minutes dedicated to questions and discussion around the topic. The presenting team will be assessed on the basis of their presentation and the quality of their responses to questions.
2. The format of the assessed presentation is entirely up to you but must be interactive – be as creative as you like, but you must ensure you cover the main theoretical material and demonstrate its application/use in marketing practice in emerging markets.
