<https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/branded-content-network-conference-7-8-november-2017-tickets-36197715341>

There will be a one-day conference on Wednesday 8 November at the University of East London's Docklands Campus with meetings from the afternoon and evenings of 7 November. All events are free but places are limited, so please registration in advance.The conference is hosted by the Branded Content Research Network and the Advertising Research Group (ARTWG), a temporary working group within the European Communication Research and Education Association (ECREA).


Marketers increasingly produce their own branded media content ('owned' media) and they seek to integrate advertising more seamlessly into the editorial forms and flows of publishing, audio, audiovisual, and social media communications. The integration of media and advertising is not new, but it is intensifying.Forms of branded content and ‘native’ advertising are developing rapidly, transforming marketing communications, challenging regulatory arrangements, and raising a host of issues from consumer awareness and acceptance of advertising to the consequences for the media’s editorial independence and creative autonomy. The Branded Content Research Network aims to investigate the changing relationships between media and marketing and to promote research, collaboration and dialogue across a very wide range of interests and perspectives. The network brings together academic researchers, industry and civil society interests to explore the practices and implications of branded content, native advertising, and media-marketing convergence.Branded content is both an economic and a cultural phenomenon that requires cross-disciplinary resources and new approaches in analysis. The conference will bring together international researchers at all stages of their careers, and marketing practitioners, for presentations and dialogue to explore insights and help to build research capacities and international collaboration.
