Master of Communication Arts Program in Digital Marketing Communication, School of Communication Arts, is hosting the most significant forum of the year — "Conversation for Creative Futures: Marketing AI & Ethics Conclave" — a seminar designed to foster conversations about creative futures where artificial intelligence (AI) marketing and ethics must advance together. This Conclave serves as an open exchange space between academics, professionals, and leading national organizations to collaboratively shape the direction of modern marketing in an era where AI technology and ethics must progress hand in hand. The event draws inspiration from the integration of the six core values of the Master of Communication Arts Program in Digital Marketing Communication: Friends, Fun, Fail Fast, Fascinate, Go Crazy, and Full-Functioned — with the aims of building long-term stakeholder relationships, stimulating creative thinking and questioning, encouraging hypothesis-driven inquiry, normalizing learning from failure in an enjoyable way, and maintaining a focus on tangible outcomes and impact. The initiative is grounded in the principles of human-centered technology, sustainable digital operations, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the exploration of new business models.
