our vision
What is neuromarketing?
Neuromarketing is a new way to think about consumer behavior, which is more accurate and useful because it takes into account how the brain actually works. In our courses you will learn evidence-based insights from neuroscience and psychology that will make your marketing strategies more effective and will reduce the waste of resources. |
The neuromarketing toolbox
The neuromarketing toolbox combines brain knowledge and neurotechnologies that help marketing professionals understand what consumers really feel and how they think. You will participate to hands-on workshop with eye-trackers, EEG and other bio-sensors (heart rate, skin conductance, EMG) that will reveal the full potential of neuromarketing. |
Learning objectives
The goal of our courses is to enable you to implement neuromarketing solutions for your business. You will (i) understand the deep impact that neuroscience insights have for successful marketing, (ii) become aware of the key brain dynamics underlying consumer behaviour, (iii) and learn how the emotional response and the preferences of your customers can be measured implicitly. |
For whom
Our courses are designed and adapted to the needs of any professional who works or is interested in the following domains: advertising; communication and media; customer journey; digital marketing; branding and employer branding; user experience; traveller experience; pricing; customer insights. |

EXECUTIVE MASTER IN NEUROMARKETING consultancy
The Executive Master in Neuromarketing Consultancy is organized in collaboration with the Belgian-Italian Chamber of Commerce to provide a high-level hands-on learning experience. You will an in-depth introduction in how you can improve your marketing strategy and process by taking into account how the consumer brain really works.
Since the hypothesis of the Homo Economicus was introduced during the Enlightenment, philosophers, economists and marketers assumed that people were rational beings, mainly driven by optimizing self-interest. However, decades of scientific research has proven that this hypothesis is wrong. Since Daniel Kahneman won the Nobel prize for Economics in 2002, most scientists agree that people are essentially emotional, instinctive and irrational beings, who often take decisions that are actually against their own interest.
This wrong assumption also explains why so many marketing actions are not successful. Do you want to know how your customers (or your employees and suppliers) really make decisions?
Through 6 modules, we give an overview of the most recent thinking on this topic, but more importantly we provide concrete, tailor-made recommendations to improve all elements of your marketing mix.
