Description:
Welcome to MYPLACE MYBRAND Summit 2013, the world's largest congregation of the sense-of-place industry, with diverse delegates and audiences across the world--delegates who will play a pivotal role in making sense-of-place knowledge for policymakers, practitioners and academics. The atmosphere will be energising, challenging and inspiring. The Summit theme Embracing the Asian Century highlights that the rise of Asia is an opportunity of our lifetime to promote sustainable sense-of-place initiatives. The Summit will showcase that place-making and place-branding activities are inextricably linked to people, biodiversity and economy. At the Summit you will hear first-hand about new perspectives and ideas that are providing new approaches for place making and place branding initiatives.
