Creative Communications

CIMCOM - Network with industry peers

Welcome

A forum for creative professionals in marketing communications, its central mission is networking, training and membership building in line with the Institute's values and culture.

Our activities

We recently held an event on the latest developments in mobile and social media research. The event marked a new chapter for CIMCOM as it was our first joint event with the Market Research Society (MRS).

Some of research's leading lights were there to guide the event's attendees through the maze of new developments and opportunities, including Doron Meyassed, Managing Director of Promise Communities, who presented a fantastic case study on how Virgin Media are using open social media environments to gain insight (available to members under the 'Member content' area).

Our latest newsletter provides further insights from the event (available under related downloads).

Presentations from our previous event on 'The Future of Mobile Marketing' can be viewed by clicking on the Mobile Marketing event (under related websites).

Members can make use of many services through the Institute, including a range of online journals, books and reports.

One such supplier is Emerald, who has made the following journals available to members:

• Corporate Communications: An International Journal – online content from 1999
• Direct Marketing: An International Journal – online content from 2007
• Journal of Communication Management – online content from 2000

Please visit our elibrary to access the service (see related links).

Members can also make use of a search facility on any topic (see marketing resources under related links), pages on different areas of business, including communications (see marketing communication channels under related links), and a photocopying and desk research service.
