Geolocation as a Necessary Tool in Marketing Strategy

Francisco Santana Sarmiento, Professor at the School of Industrial and Civil Engineering at the ULPGC, with extensive teaching and research experience in Cartographic, Geodetic, and Photogrammetry Engineering, gave a talk entitled “Geolocation as a Necessary Tool in Marketing Strategy” on Wednesday, March 12, 2025, as part of the Commercial Communication and Sales Management course at the MUMCI (University of Madrid) in the Faculty of Economics, Business, and Tourism.

For the master’s students, this was a very educational way to learn about a highly useful tool in marketing strategies and, through practical examples, to learn what Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are and how to use them. These systems allow companies to analyze geographic data to identify market concentrations, plan strategic locations, plan campaigns, and optimize resources, thus offering a significant competitive advantage.

The Department of Economics and Business Management believes in learning based on real experiences. Thanks to the collaboration with Cajasiete, students of Operational Marketing Management (Degree in Business Administration) have received a professional challenge that will allow them to apply their knowledge in the practice, enhancing their creativity and strategic brand-building skills. These initiatives enrich their academic training and prepare them for today’s business environment challenges.

They shared with the students the importance of the connection between company and customer in a constantly evolving environment.
