Bringing people together and sharing digital marketing practices and common challenges in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). 

The Research Institute of the International University of Japan (IUJ) is pleased to announce that we will be hosting the “Digital Marketing in Japanese HEIs International Symposium 2022” to bring experts and DM practitioners together.

Purpose: Sharing and enhancing knowledge about digital marketing (DM) among JHEIs.

 Why joining the Symposium?

  1. Understanding how other HEIs are managing DM&SM (social media) to attract new students as well as to engage with current one and build their brand.

  2. Tips and techniques that are required to develop  a world-class digital marketing activity.

  3. Connect with colleagues to foster a community of DMs in HEIs.

A warm welcome to the 1st. Digital Marketing in JHEIs International Symposium to IUJ by Prof. Comai, the conference organizer.
