City Nation Place Americas breaks down the silos between tourism, economic development, and city management to foster a dialogue on how places can work better together to attract talent, tourism, and investment and improve the quality of life for your community.

City Nation Place UK 2023 will take place in Sheffield – with a full day conference on Tuesday 19^th September and an optional “Walking Conference” on Wednesday 20^th September.  

Join the leadership teams of local authorities, local visitor economy partnerships [LVEPs], destination marketing organisations, business improvement districts and economic development teams to join the dots between what makes a place attractive for citizens, visitors, and business.  You will leave with actionable ideas to support your own place brand and marketing strategy.

Join the 9th City Nation Place Global conference to network and learn with the leadership teams of country branding teams, regional and city marketing boards, destination marketing organisations, investment promotion agencies, and economic development boards from around the world. 

What do we actually mean by “perceptions”? Discover new research from Bloom Consulting in partnership with City Nation Place to develop an industry consensus of how place brand and marketing teams should be assessing perceptions of their place brand.

Join local authority and place leaders and the leadership teams of destination marketing and economic development organisations as we focus on the promotion of UK attractiveness, how to develop more inclusive place brand narratives and more effective organisation structures for place management and marketing, and how places are re-imagining and re-mixing urban space and place to improve quality of life, and to attract talent, visitors and investment. You’ll also have the opportunity to join delegates from around the world at the co-located global conference, to learn more about the international talent marketplace and how place-to-place collaborations are benefitting cities and nations around the world.
