LSESU Welcome Week Freshers Fair 2023

Mind The Market

Where psychology meets marketing: join us to decode why we buy, click, and act

Where minds shape markets, and brands tell stories.

Welcome to Mind the Market — a fresh and exciting space at LSE that brings together everything you’ve ever wondered about why people buy, what makes a brand iconic, and how psychology powers the world of business.
We explore the deep psychology behind consumer behavior and apply it to real world. If you’ve ever asked yourself, "Why do people love Apple so much?", "What’s behind the success of Pop Mart?" or "Why do some branding strategies work in one place but flop in another?", this is the place for you.

What We Do?
We run interactive, beginner-friendly events that help you explore both the “why” behind consumer choices and the “how” of effective strategies. Here's what you can look forward to:

Weekly Journal
we publish easy-to-read blog posts exploring psychological theories behind business, and diving into legendary branding stories of long-renowned companies, as well as newer but influential names.
Want to Write or just read? You are in!

Guests Speaker Events
Hear real-world insights from industry leaders that shape the future of marketing. Get inspired, ask questions, and connect with professionals who blend psychology, branding, and business every day.
