Strategy development is one of the crucial factors for a firm's performance. For it
to be developed, a strategic analysis has to be conducted first. It enables
companies to gain a deeper understanding of their internal and external
environment. In the present work, the specialty coffee market is closely analyzed through a strategic analysis. The focus of this study is the young company Tikuna, a coffee producer that aims to enter the German market. In this context, Tikuna's possible entry into the German market and the companies competitive capacities are analyzed. In order to implement the different tools of the analysis, extensive literature research, as well as one expert interview and a survey were conducted.
It was found that Tikuna possesses all characteristics to enter the German
market. However, due to the lack of a differentiation factor in Tikuna's value
proposition, its competitive capacity is limited to a short period of time. In this
sense, different recommendations are given in order to ensure long term success
in the market. The central one being that Tikuna has to use its main strength and
bring innovation to the market.

This paper describes an application analysis of one important topic of diversity
marketing – gender marketing. With the help of two surveys and content analyses
in two different media sectors – television and print media – the general trend of
gender representation in advertising could be located. While most survey
respondents are still using characteristics for males and females which were
shaped by traditional gender roles, most of them believe that the roles from the
1950s are outdated and that the media should adapt to the changes in societies in
regard to gender roles. However, the content analyses have shown that the
marketers have already adapted and are primarily presenting the viewers
contemporary images of men and women instead of the stereotyped ones from the
1950s. The only issue that has not changed yet is the color coding which starts to
differentiate between males and females since childhood. The findings of this
paper suggest that the perception and the reality do not always correspond with
each other and that, although the adoption of the change of gender roles is
advancing, it is still not completed yet.
This research looks into the question of where and how Artificial Intelligence and Big Data can be usefully implemented into Affiliate Marketing. By consulting relevant literature and qualified experts, this work identifies 6 areas, where Artificial Intelligence can be beneficial. These areas were found to be Affiliate Recruitment, Affiliate Management, Product Data Feed Optimization, Tracking, Attribution and Forecasting.
The implementation of Artificial Intelligence in these areas revealed 3 advantages to the Affiliate Marketing channel: Saving of time, support of decision-making, and incentivizing of publishers. While a more detailed study of this research topic would be necessary for validating the results, the findings show that the implementation of Artificial Intelligence technology can help a business gain competitive advantage.
Cluster-clean-label: an interactive machine learning approach for labeling high-dimensional data

With the advent of modern communication media over the last decades, such as email, video conferencing, or instant messaging, a plethora of research has emerged that analyzes the association between communication media and negotiation processes and outcomes. This chapter reviews theoretical vantage points on communication media and negotiation and summarizes empirical findings from the last five decades. Specifically, the author focuses on media richness theory and the task/media fit hypothesis, grounding in communication, and media synchronicity theory as communication theoretical foundations that found traction in negotiation research. These theoretical vantage points are supplemented by a review of specific theoretical psychological aspects of communication media, the barrier effect and psychological distance theory. In the second part of the chapter, empirical evidence on communication media and negotiation is presented, derived from an extensive literature search of relevant peer-reviewed articles. The emphasis in this review of the empirical literature is on the communication medium as an independent variable. In other words, the author analyzes effects of communication media on the negotiation process (descriptive process parameters, economic reference points, negotiation behavior/tactics, individual psychological variables, assessment of the opponent) as well as economic (agreement, individual profit, joint profit, equality of agreement) and socio-emotional (satisfaction, future interaction, trust) outcomes. A succeeding subsection is devoted to communication medium choice in negotiation, a topic much less researched. The conclusion sums up the findings and sketches out some avenues for future research.
