About IMMAA*

IMMAA (International Media Management Academic Association) is a global 
association of academics researching critical issues of media management 
with the goal of improving practice and understanding of media markets 
and institutions for the ultimate benefit of media managers and the 
students who will be the media managers of the future. Its diverse 
international membership fosters and promotes an appreciation for the 
differences among countries and cultures that contribute to 
characteristics that differentiate national media markets and shape 
relationships among them. Past conferences were held in Chicago, San 
Francisco, Saarbrücken, New York, Lisbon, Pamplona, Moscow and Seoul.
