 This book addresses how Covid-19 has damaged businesses and how businesses can adapt to the new 


normal. In doing so, the book contributes to theories associated with the marketing management, by 


assessing opportunities and challenges associated with the implementation of technology and 

marketing management during and post Covid-19.  The book will be useful for anyone aiming to gain a 

better understanding of the current and future technologies that may play a role or have a robust 

impact on marketing management during Covid-19.
