THE AWARDED PROJECTS
BRANDING
ESSENTIAL COSTA RICA
Costa Rica
Building on its reputation for sustainable tourism, Costa Rica has launched a national brand based on the same values to promote tourism, exports, foreign direct investment and Costa Rican culture in an integrated manner. This branding is effective: not only does it enjoy the support of the inhabitants, but the country’s reputation has been strengthened.
TOURISM
10XCOPENHAGEN – WONDERFUL COPENHAGEN
Copenhagen – Denmark
In order to refine its tourism strategy by 2030, the destination management organization of the Greater Copenhagen, Wonderful Copenhagen has launched a survey among international customers and residents. The 10XCopenhagen project focuses on the perception and experience of tourism and the future drivers of tourism growth. It made it possible to establish recommendations and propose new orientations on the basis of objective data.
major projects
CITÉ FERTILE
Pantin (Île-de-France) – France
Pantin (Île-de-France) – France

economic development
BIZKAIA TALENT
Basque Country – Spain
Basque Country – Spain
Bizkaia Talent offers companies, organizations and individuals a wide range of services dedicated to attracting talent. A web platform disseminates information about Bilbao and its region (key figures, identity, quality of life, etc.). It also identifies opportunities and possible aids or networks that can be mobilized. By conducting strategic reflections and leading networks of ambassadors at European level, the association has succeeded in attracting new professionals, bringing back members of the Basque diaspora and taking advantage of Brexit.
territories with specificity
TRANSFORMCITY
Amsterdam – Netherlands
Cities are sometimes confronted with a paradox: they can be both in real estate tension and have vast areas of industrial wasteland that are difficult to develop. “TransformCity” is an online platform that connects the City, project developers, landowners and citizens. It facilitates the development of collaborative urban projects to develop a sustainable, resilient and inclusive local community. It is currently being implemented in two of Amsterdam’s largest urban renewal areas.
