Abstract

Made In, one of Switzerland’s most exciting architectural firms, presents the quintessence of their thinking: an original and thought-provoking challenge to ideas about art, perception, and architectural design. It may sound banal, yet it is a fundamental truth of architectural design: all ideas are based on previous ideas, on their imitation, inversion, rejection, or adaptation; or on their reinterpretation or ignoration. The same applies to our visual perception and how it influences our thinking and world of ideas. It is actually true for any kind of creation and design. Portraits: Architectural Parables traces these questions through a wealth of images from art history and everyday culture, as well as through analytical and classifying texts. With this book, François Charbonnet and Patrick Heiz, the founding partners of the highly acclaimed Swiss design firm Made In, reveal the approaches they take in their design methodology as well as in their teaching at ETH Zurich’s Department of Architecture and Accademia di architettura in Mendrisio. The distinctive feature lies in the linking and collaging of mutually illuminating, yet apparently antagonistic, programs. Made In’s method does not claim historical accuracy, as sources and facts are intentionally collaged to serve a reductive purpose. The focus is on the potential they see in the cross-fertilization of different images and ideas rather than on a single, all-embracing model of thought.

Abstract

The book investigates some aspects of the Italian economic development looking at some usually forgotten cases of international success: the small-medium enterprises specialized in “light” productions, such as food, beverages, and apparel. These firms have shown a peculiar ability to adapt, in order to cope with the instabilities of the international markets, modifying both their organization and their business strategies, elaborating an unusual entrepreneurial style, more attentive to the resources, constraints and vulnerabilities of the context.

Abstract

Le développement international représente aujourd’hui un des principaux leviers du plan de relance post-pandémie de la Belgique, au même moment que ses exportations signent un bond record de 26% (BNB, 2022). Ces aboutissements témoignent du rôle clé de l'expansion comme moteur de croissance. &#13;Parmi les marchés étrangers les plus attractifs pour le secteur agro-alimentaire figure notamment le Japon. Les produits belges y bénéficient en effet d’une importante notoriété, le Made in Belgium étant vecteur de qualité et de valeur aux yeux des consommateurs. &#13;Bien que ses perspectives soient alléchantes, ce marché reste complexe et ses acheteurs ne connaissent que peu les marques internationales, pourtant toujours plus nombreuses. Dans cet environnement très concurrentiel, doté d’une différence culturelle notable, tout l’enjeu est de déterminer comment une marque belge aux ressources limitées peut parvenir à se différencier. Le présent travail s’y attèle en abordant le point de vue spécifique du branding Country of Origin (COO). &#13;Il étudie d’abord dans quelle mesure celui-ci constitue un facteur favorisant, puis parvient grâce à la mise en perspective des résultats recueillis à illustrer la dynamique d’influence qui s’exerce sur les comportements d'achat via un modèle conceptuel.&#13;Ce travail met ainsi en évidence le rôle du branding COO comme levier stratégique sur lequel les entreprises belges doivent impérativement capitaliser afin d’exploiter le potentiel des activités existantes. Au-delà de l’aspect conceptuel, il aborde les façons d’intégrer cette force au travers d’une série de recommandations, notamment via une stratégie de co-branding dans le cadre d'une Joint-Venture.

Abstract

Nowadays, all over the world, whether in Asia or Latin America, consumers are faced with making choices between products from all countries. In order to understand consumer purchasing decisions, numerous studies have been conducted and have shown the influencing effect of country-of-origin. The chosen subject of this thesis was the impact of "Made in Belgium" on the Vietnamese consumer purchasing behaviour on beers. The main objectives were therefore to establish which variables and factors favour the willingness to buy a Belgian product with a “Made in Belgium” label and to understand the Vietnamese perception of Belgian beers.&#13;Our study was done in two parts. The first being the theoretical part, requiring the reading of many scientific articles and studies in order to understand the factors that influence the purchasing behaviours of consumers and especially the Vietnamese. The country-of-origin was studied in depth in order to ascertain the impact it had on purchasing intentions. The second part, the empirical part, was carried out in two stages. The first part was conducted by interviewing Vietnamese consumers and professionals in the beer sector in Vietnam. The second step was achieved by an online survey reaching a larger number of people, targeted as Vietnamese currently living in Vietnam and who consume beer.&#13;From these two parts, some interesting and significant results have been shown. The main result of this study is that "Made in Belgium" does have an impact on the consumption and perception of Belgian beers by Vietnamese consumers. Indeed, the Vietnamese consider Belgian beers as being of high quality and are fond of foreign beers in general. Moreover, Belgian beer has earned a positive and solid reputation in Vietnam with many consumers considering Belgium to be the best producer in the World.&#13;To conclude, the findings of this thesis may prove to be both thought-provoking and valuable for any Belgian company eager to integrate the Vietnamese market and, more particularly, beer companies. They can now benefit from some constructive insights regarding the perception of Belgium in Vietnam as well as the impact of Made in Belgium on the purchasing behaviour of the Vietnamese.
