Kernaufgabe des Werbe- oder Kommunikationsberaters in Unternehmen ist die strategische Planung von Kommunikationsaktivitaten, also die inhaltliche Ausarbeitung von Werbe- oder Kommunikationskonzepten. Gleiches gilt fur Kontakter oder Strategic Planner bei Agenturen oder fur Consultants. Um diese Aufgabe professionell zu erfullen, muss er/sie Geschaftsstrategien analysieren, Elemente aus der Marketingtheorie praxisgerecht ubertragen und daraus stimmige Entscheidungen zur Kommunikation ableiten. Einen praxisbewahrten Ansatz, ein «Konzept fur Konzepte», das auch Neuromarketing, Social Media und die Web-basierte Kommunikationsforschung berucksichtigt, prasentiert dieses Buch. Der Autor uberwindet dabei die theoretische Darstellung reiner Lehrbucher und liefert viele Tipps, Beispiele und Checklisten, die den Anwender bis zur finalen Umsetzung seines Konzepts unterstutzen. Er vermittelt das notwendige Wissen, mit dem sich Umsetzungsvorschlage konstruktiv-kritisch bewerten lassen, und hilft damit, die meist eher subjektive Beurteilung von Kreativitat zu objektivieren und zu professionalisieren. Das Buch bietet viele neue, farbige Werbebeispiele, wieder versehen mit Kommentaren und Fragen, die zum Nach- und Weiterdenken uber Absichten, Umsetzungsqualitaten und finale Wirkungen fuhren. Erweitert wurde es unter anderem zu den Themen Kommunikations-Controlling und Benchmarking, Elektronische Kommunikation und Mobile Communications sowie zu Messen und Events.

“We do not know where Silicon Valley is really located”, Feldman writes, because these types of organization, when they are dynamic, are moving and fluid. Innovation and production ecosystems or clusters are proliferating today because they seem to be adapted to the demands of innovation, growth and employment. The process leading to their institutionalization escapes a summary analysis of the behavior triggered by monetary incentives or, at the very least, makes it richer. The relational aspect becomes predominant, the interactions between the participants testify to the difficulty of separating the geographical and social dimensions. In the most prominent American clusters, public/private linkages and the building of social links express the centrality of networks in the innovation process. The European vision seeks to articulate entrepreneurial discoveries with vertical public interventions. The competitiveness poles in France suffer from the fact that public choices seem to be torn between two contradictory objectives: efficiency and equity.
