Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In the last few decades, technological advances have substantially affected various sectors, industries and, most importantly, consumer life. The widespread adoption of smartphones, the world's increasingly internet-savvy population and the full potential of the technology industry provide a myriad of opportunities for consumer interaction that need to be studied in greater depth.

Both Marketing and Finance have been affected by the momentous change observed in the technological culture, as well as the behaviour of the consumer who now has extensive knowledge related to the products and services he or she plans to buy and no longer responds to traditional marketing strategies as before.

All this has given rise, on the one hand, to the emergence of digital marketing that allows the creation of communication strategies with the consumer in a more precise and segmented way, as it is possible to track their online behaviour, and on the other hand, to the emergence of technological financial services, as well as financial technologies that bring to light the need for financial education that generates sustainable financial behaviour.

In the meantime, the aforementioned changes have emerged rapidly and there is still much to be understood about the impact of technological culture on digital marketing, finance and consumer behaviour, especially from (but not limited to) a sustainable perspective.

The aim of this Special Issue is to broaden knowledge and understanding of the impact of advancing technologies on digital marketing, finance and consumer behaviour from a multidisciplinary perspective. Therefore, we invite the scientific community to contribute to this Special Issue with different visions, and theoretical and methodological frameworks, which contribute to achieve this goal.
