This diploma thesis addresses one of the modern marketing communication tools -- event marketing whose importance is steeply growing in these days not only abroad but also in the Czech Republic. The objective of this work is to analyze certain problems associated with event marketing involvement in the marketing communication mix of a company occurring in the business-to-business sector. The first part of the work is devoted to the theoretical introduction to different issues around event marketing. However, its main content is created by a view of the situation of the particular company -- MECAS ESI s.r.o. In this part I put emphasis on three event types, using them to carry out a deeper analysis with the aim to reveal their essential problems and to propose certain recommendations to the future. Regarding the applied methods, I use especially structured interviews with particular members of the company, further I gain some information also from a questionnaire survey carried out among event attendees and finally I complete these results with my own knowledge and experience from the company's environment. In the end I come to the conclusion that most of the problems are caused by the insufficient level of cooperation between the sales and marketing department.

<p>Inom kunskapsbaserade yrken är det viktigt att rekrytera kompetent personal. Med hjälp av employer branding ökar möjligheten för företag att stärka sin attraktionskraft mot framtida potentiell arbetskraft. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka samt att jämföra hur Deloitte, KPMG, Öhrlings PricewaterhouseCoopers samt Ernst & Young marknadsför sig som arbetsgivare mot Uppsalas ekonomistudenter. Fokus ligger på hur företagens frontpersoner, samt de evenemang företagen genomför, påverkar företagens attraktionskraft. Utifrån employer branding-teorier och med hjälp av intervjuer med studentkoordinatorerna på de undersökta företagen samt en undersökning av företagens evenemang har slutsatser dragits kring hur dessa faktorer påverkar hur attraktivt ett företag, enligt Universums Företagsbarometer, är hos ekonomistudenter på Uppsala universitet. Undersökningen visar att en stark studentkoordinator kan hjälpa företaget att klättra på rankingen, men också skada det långsiktiga employer branding-arbetet. Evenemangen i sig visar sig vara av mindre betydelse än de frontpersoner som representerar företagen i mötet med studenterna.</p>

Denna studie syftar till att ge en överblick och förståelse kring hur modeföretag arbetar med varumärkesbyggande via event. Studien syftar också till att undersöka och tillföra en djupare förståelse om varumärken och event som fenomen. Varumärken används ofta av människor för att visa en tillhörighet och ekonomisk status, inte minst inom modebranschen. Den påverkan event har på varumärken har tidigare studerats i förhållande till sportevent, medan forskningen kring modebranschen är begränsad. Detta trots att event ofta förekommer inom modebranschen. Därmed skrivs denna uppsats för att tillföra mer kunskap inom denna forskningslucka. En studie genomfördes baserat på intervjuer med flera modeföretag och varumärkesexperter i Sverige och USA. Svaren från intervjuerna analyserades sedan i förhållande till de valda teorierna som rör både event och varumärken. Teorierna som använts är eventmarknadsföring, varumärkesupplevelse, organisationsidentitet, konsumentbaserat varumärkesvärde och översättningsteori. De resultat som framkom av studien presenteras i en modell med de nyckelfaktorer som framkommit vara viktiga för ett lyckat event. För att besvara frågeställningen är slutsatsen som presenteras att event kan påverka varumärkesbyggande, men vilket sätt det förstärks på är svårt och resurskrävande att mäta. Vid slutet av denna uppsats kommer läsaren att ha en starkare kunskap och förståelse om varumärken och event, samt en övergripande bild kring hur dessa två fenomen är anslutna. / This study aims to give an overview and understanding of how the fashion companies are working with brand building through events.

The findings from the study are presented in a model with the key factors emerged as important for a successful event. To answer this paper’s question, the conclusion is presented that events can affect brand building, but how it is strengthen is difficult and resource-demanding to measure. By the end of this paper, the reader will have a greater knowledge and understanding of brands and events, as well as an overview of how these two phenomena are connected.
