Poster

Coca-Cola, over many years has expanded across the world, and today it continues to be one of the most loved and valuable brands with its contrasting red and white logo that leaves such an impression it’s known by almost everyone everywhere.
Coca-Cola Japan has not only the Coca-Cola brand but also I Lohas water, Georgia coffee, Ayataka tea, Sokenbicha, Kochakaden, Aquarius, Minute Maid and Fanta amongst others. These brands are so ubiquitous, so you may drink everyday even without realizing!
We cannot take the eyes off not only from the diversity of brand development, but from the innovative product development while always keeping the leader position in the market.

What is the secret that keeps so many people fascinated with Coca-Cola’s products even 60 years after the company’s foundation in Japan?
At this ICC Talk Session you can learn all about the big advantage Coca-Cola has, its localisation and marketing strategies!

Our guest speakers are two young Waseda Alumni who are marketers for Coca-Cola Japan. They have kindly agreed to give this special talk for Waseda students only!
They will give you the behind the scenes story about the launch of the hit product “Kochakaden CRAFTEA”, Coca-Cola Japan’s branding strategy and even the knowledge required to become an active part of a global company.

If you are interested in marketing and branding strategy or just working in a global company then this is your chance to hear all about it directly from former Waseda students!

On top of that, all participants will receive a free Coca-Cola product as a present! Come along and join us!
