Professor Frank Bass
Professor Frank Bass pioneered the establishment of marketing as a science in which well-tested mathematical models could be used to predict the behaviour of future markets.
His most renowned contribution to the field was the development of the Bass diffusion model, a mathematical model that describes the adoption of new products.
