9th annual City Nation Place Global, London 

Register your interest for 2023

City Nation Place brings together nation branding teams, city and regional marketing boards, destination marketing organisations, investment promotion agencies, and economic development teams to focus on how to leverage a place brand and marketing strategy to…

  • Build and manage a more positive domestic and international reputation
  • Deliver stronger, more sustainable economic and tourism development
  • Implement more effective strategies for attracting visitors, talent, and investment

Join us for the 2023 conference over two days in London to network and learn with your peers from around the world…

On Day One, you have the opportunity to join our pre-conference morning workshops or a place shaping tour introducing you to a new area of London with an insider’s perspective on the economic development strategy.

The conference will open after lunch on Day One and continue on Day Two with a mix of place leader keynote presentations, panel discussions, and expert-led sessions all designed to provide you with insights and actionable ideas to improve your own team’s approach and benefit your citizens and community.

Make the most of the networking opportunities available – you will join our online networking platform ahead of the event to arrange to connect with other delegates in person at the conference.

As a Global conference delegate, you’ll be the first to hear about the winners of this year’s City Nation Place Awards, the global awards that benchmark and celebrate the best in place branding, place marketing, and place shaping.


“I haven’t missed City Nation Place since its inauguration. Why I keep coming back is for two things…One is to make sure that as a destination, as a DMO, we learn… and for us it’s a more realistic way to do collaboration without having to spend hours and lots of flights going all around the world to engage with destinations. You come here, you can do that, and what you also find are kindred spirits.”

Enver Duminy, CEO, Cape Town Tourism

“City Nation Place is global, and it’s a unique opportunity to look at systems of place branding from an economic development side along with tourism and other systems of working together. In my experience, I haven’t seen any other opportunities to bring collaboration in that way. It’s not just tourism, it’s not just economic development, it’s the full conversation. It’s an exciting opportunity to come together to learn and implement new ideas.”

Anthony Everett, President & CEO at 4VI
