8th APAC Pricing Strategy Forum Excellence in pricing From good to great! Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 29 October 2014 Please join us for an afternoon program dedicated to pricing and strategy optimization! The introduction of GST on 1 April 2015 will have a significant impact on businesses in Malaysia. The key challenge lies in knowing how to communicate these new prices inclusive of GST. How do you plan to tackle this challenge? Many aspects have to be considered, including consumer price perception, changes in purchasing behavior, and optimal price points after the GST introduction. How you can prepare your business for this challenge will be a key topic during the 8th APAC Pricing Strategy Forum hosted by global strategy and marketing consultancy Simon-Kucher & Partners. Partner and Executive Vice President of SimonKucher, Dr. Andreas von der Gathen and the team from the Singapore office will introduce current operational and strategic needs in the areas of pricing and monetization. You will have a unique opportunity to network with industry peers, share views and discuss experiences from inside and outside of your industry. We look forward to welcoming you to our forum on 29 October 2014!
