About the Media Management and Transformation Centre (MMTC) at JIBS
Researching Digital Innovations and Business Renewal
Digitization has been changing the ways media are consumed and produced. The effects can be traced to various aspects of everyday life for consumers, firms, and other stakeholders in society. At the Media Management and Transformation Centre (MMTC), we take interest in the business implications of this development, including the market dynamics, innovations and strategic responses in the media industries. The work at MMTC builds on the tradition at Jönköping International Business School to explore and excel in the areas of Renewal and Entrepreneurship.
Beyond generating new insights in areas such as strategy, entrepreneurship, innovation, marketing, retailing and branding, MMTC aims to be a meeting place and provide services to both the academia, practitioners and the wider society. The center continuously offers programs for visiting scholars, conducts seminars and doctoral courses, and provides support and infrastructure to the European Media Management Association (emma). It is the home of the Journal of Media Business Studies – one of the main journals in the field. Scholars at MMTC regularly participate in the public debate and provide advisory services to government bodies, trade associations and companies.
Since its launch in 2003, MMTC has been recognized as one of the most central academic institutions in the fields of Media Management and Media Economics both nationally and internationally.
Media Management
On the one hand, legacy media have to respond to highly competitive markets characterized by speed, innovation and surprise. To react quickly, it is necessary for legacy media to transform business models, management and organizational structures, to resonate with digitized consumer cultures. On the other hand, media management is no longer exclusive to media firms: the need to understand the economics and management of digital media is increasingly evident in most industries and operating functions. We take interest in both these perspectives.
