I write this article to inform you about the attempted proposal, by the Greek Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs, Culture and Sports, to abolish all Academic Departments of Marketing, through the draft Law 'Athena'. The Greek Minister claims in one of his interviews that Academic discipline of Marketing should not be taught as a "undergraduate program of studies" at higher educational Institutes. Based on the above, the Academic Staff and students of the Department of Commerce and Marketing at Technological Educational Institute of Crete, formed "Save Marketing in Greece" Initiative. Please find attached our press release, while our website www.savemarketing.gr is currently translated in English.

The new year gives IKEA the opportunity to celebrate new beginnings in life. The brief is quite clear but, of course, there are plenty of different ways to respond to it. And it's funny to see how the UK and Germany executed the same campaign with two completely opposite approaches: a new life as a couple vs a new life as single.
