Inaugural Session : Setting the Context
Day I (March 15, 2013)
Social Marketing was launched as a discipline in 1971 when a
pioneering article by Kotler and Zaltman in the Journal of
Marketing coined the term and described it as “the use of
marketing principles and techniques to advance a social
cause, idea or behavior”. Since then the use of social
marketing concepts, tools and practices has found
application in diverse fields such as improvement of health,
prevention of injuries, protection of the environment,
contribution to communities and enhancement of personal
financial well being.

11.00am to 11.30am
“Shared value involves creating economic value in a way that
also creates value for society by addressing its needs and
challenges. Businesses must reconnect company success
with social progress. Shared value is not social responsibility,
philanthropy, or even sustainability, but a new way to
achieve economic success. It is not on the margin of what
companies do but at the center.” (“Creating Shared Value”
Porter and Kramer, HBR Jan – Feb, 2011).
Shared value redirects the gaze of corporate, NGO and
government leaders, enabling them to see new
opportunities for private enterprise to solve public
problems. This has challenged the existing paradigm of the
way businesses do business by expounding the co-creation,
co-llaboration, and co-operation model. Both Michael Porter
and Philip Kotler are propounding theories to support this
model which is redefining the entire strategic intent of
organizations.
The challenge of Social Marketing is to find a space in the
newly enabled exo-system and get integrated as a strategic
tool synergizing with the newly re-defined purpose and
mission of organizations. This session focuses around these
concepts and challenges and the roles played by the various
collaborators – Business, Government, and Civil societies
while creating shared value processes in their business
organization.
Tea and networking
11.30am to 1.15 pm
Technical Session I
Business Challenges faced by organizations in embracing the concept of Social
Marketing
“Companies can create economic value by creating societal value. There are three
distinct ways to do this: by re -conceiving products and markets, redefining
productivity in the value chain, and building supportive industry clusters at the
company’s locations. Each of these is part of the virtuous circle of shared value;
improving value in one area gives rise to opportunities in the others. The concept of
shared value resets the boundaries of capitalism. By better connecting companies’
success with societal improvement, it opens up many ways to serve new needs, gain
efficiency, create differentiation, and expand markets”. (Porter and Kramer).
Social Marketing is an integral part of Creating Shared Value. However, embarking on
this path presents several challenges. This session will explore how companies have
identified and negotiated these challenges successfully.

Integrating Media, Communication and Technology for Effective Social Marketing
“Social media platforms offer tremendous opportunities to engage our audiences deeply
and wisely. However, we can’t approach social media with the same old mindset, and treat
these channels like cyber brochures that we push to people. Social media is about meeting
our audiences where they are both in cyberspace and in their daily lives, engaging them as
part of the solution and listening. That being said social media still needs to be grounded in
good strategic planning, as part of the marketing mix.” (Mike Newton Ward, Social Media
Consultant).
This session will explore how companies can integrate media, communication and
technology harmoniously to produce meaningful messages to reach their target audiences
and thus influence their behaviours for good. The session would focus around the services
and solutions provided by ICT service providers while facilitating organizations to embed
and enhance their efforts in Social Marketing.

Day II (March 16, 2013)
9.30am to 11.00am Technical Session I
Corporate Social Initiatives for Community well – being
“There are clear signs of stress around the world, coming from the “other 99%”. A billion
people still go to bed hungry. A child dies of starvation every six seconds. Our form of
capitalism has brought us far, but it hasn’t solved everything. We think that businesses that
are responsible and actually making contributions to society a part of their business model
will be successful”. (Unilver CEO, Paul Polman).
“When we come out of the fog, this notion that companies need to stand for something_
they need to be accountable for more than just the money they earn- is going to be
profound. (Jeffrey Immelt, Chairman and CEO, General Electric, November, 2008 at the
Business for Social Responsibility Conference).
This would be an experience sharing session wherein practicing executives would discuss
their experience in conceiving, implementing and sustaining CSR related initiatives
especially from the perspective of seeing value creation for organizations that have
embarked on the path of creating shared value as a strategic intent.

The Game Changers: Success Stories of Social Entrepreneurs
“Business are not the only players in finding profitable solutions to social problems. A whole
generation of social entrepreneurs is pioneering new product concepts that meet social
needs using viable business models. Because they are not locked into narrow traditional
business thinking, social entrepreneurs are often well ahead of established corporations in
discovering these opportunities. Social enterprises that create shared value can scale up far
more rapidly than purely social programs, which often suffer from an inability to grow and
become self-sustaining. Real social entrepreneurship should be measured by its ability to
create shared value, not just social benefit”. (Porter and Kramer)
“I have always believed that a plausible impossibility is better than a convincing possibility”.
(NR Narayana Murthy, Chairman Emeritus, Infosys Limited)
This would be an experience sharing session wherein a variety of Social Entrepreneurs
would provide insights into what goes into being, in the words of NR Narayan Murthy,
“agents of change using their imagination and determination to achieve what others never
dared”. It would also depict how social enterprises have become the last mile drivers for
the CSR efforts of corporates while attempting to attain their goals of shared value.
