Biography

Marc Vanhuele (PhD UCLA) is Professor of Marketing. He teaches marketing and pricing management. His research focuses on two fields: how customers treat price information and how marketing managers can improve their decision making through better use of quantitative information on the consumer’s mindset. He has served as associate dean, first responsible for digital and for HEC’s participation in the Université Paris-Saclay and later as director of pre-expérience programs. He also works as consultant in market research and as expert witness in commercial litigation. His research has been published in the leading academic journals in marketing and he is co-author of the book “Consumer Behavior. Applications in Marketing.” (Sage 2022) that brings together the most recent research on consumer behavior of interest to marketers.
