2nd International Place Branding Conference

Tras el éxito de nuestra Conferencia Eurhodip sobre Marketing de Ciudades, queremos llamar la atención de nuestros lectores sobre la 2ª Conferencia Internacional de Branding de Lugares (2nd International Place Branding Conference), que se celebrará en enero de 2011 en Bogotá, Colombia. Ares Kalandides, conferenciante en nuestra reunión sobre sus experiencias en Berlín y Bogotá, es miembro del Comité Organizador de esta Conferencia.

2nd Place Branding ConferenceThursday, January 20, 2011  - Saturday, January 22, 2011
Cámara de Comercio de Bogotá (Chapinero)

Calle 67 No. 8-32/44
Bogotá, Colombia

Following the success of the 1st International Place Branding Conference in Berlin in 2008, we will move one step closer to developing a ‘common language’ among the different disciplines involved. The conference aims at enriching the dialogue between academics, practitioners and city representatives who often approach very similar issues from different angles. It explicitly adopts an interdisciplinary and international perspective aiming to address the theme in its full complexity.



Contributions by scholars, researchers, doctoral students, practitioners, consultants and local/regional authorities are invited that address the general conference theme in divergent places, at different scales and in varied contexts. Empirical work and case studies that can offer new insights and best practice guidance are particularly encouraged. Contributions will preferably (but not exclusively) focus on one or more of the following conference sub-themes:

• Theoretical and methodological issues of place branding/marketing
• Conceptualization of place identity
• Involving local communities in place branding/marketing
• Place branding/marketing as a tool of urban and regional development
• Experiential Place Branding
• Assessment methods: how to measure place branding/marketing success
• Place branding and management of tourism destinations
• Branding the cultural and creative city
• Branding the green city
• International networks and place branding
• Place Branding through storytelling

*Why Bogotá?

In the past 10 years Bogotá has undergone radical changes and is today one of the most vibrant cities in the world both culturally and busines wise. But as is often the case, image takes a long time to follow reality. Bogotá is thus about to launch its new city marketing strategy and offers an excellent case study for the conference.

*Abstract Submission

Abstracts of no less than 250 and no more than 400 words should be sent as email attachments to: conference@inpolis.de , until 30th June 2010.
