The 2 forums were part of the AGSB led- Marketing Management curriculum for the pioneering batch of 65 students of  the Ateneo School of Medicine and Public Health completing their senior year of a  dual MD- MBA degree program. The AGSB Marketing cluster led by its chairman, Prof. Frank Roa and the Marketing faculty led by Prof. Bong De Ungria, Prof. Danny Barrenechea and Prof. Gennie Gandia- De Guia, designed the forum into the marketing subject to provide a real, practical, local and relevant marketing learning experience for the students. Aside from the events which happened during the forum (sponsors, photos, program), the students were graded on their pre-campaign (use of posters, emails, SMS, websites, brochures) and post-campaign activities (data mining, posting event details on youtube, blogs, slideshare, videos and lecture CDs).
