About us
We are a place making and marketing agency. We provide government organizations, associations and companies (both public and private) with practical solutions to develop, manage and market places as destinations, accompanying them on every step of the way. We like to do things differently. We take a step back and study the whole place (place = 'topos' in Greek) with a critical but enthusiastic look at where the destination sits in the compared to its competitors, both near and far. Then, working closely with our clients, we create strategies to plan their place’s future, understand the latest industry conditions, engage their partners, involve the local community and reveal their place uniqueness in every form. Our services focus on offering complete solutions for destination strategy & planning, place marketing & branding (online and offline), market intelligence, advocacy & government support, tailor-made to every place’s distinct needs. Our elite team of place strategists & researchers combines extensive experience as practitioners, managing operations and many years of consultancy background with a passion to transform places into thriving destinations. We are strategic, we are creative, we are practical. Our philosophy is TOPOSOPHY.

💬 How can we forge an agenda on social sustainability for Europe's hospitality industry? Last week, our Head of Insights, Peter Jordan, led a dynamic workshop with over 80 participants from Europe's hospitality associations at HOTREC's General Assembly in Warsaw. Europe's hotels, bars, and restaurants are the pulse of their communities, but as tourism’s local impacts come under growing scrutiny, it’s essential to take a more strategic approach in engaging with residents and the media—while enhancing the industry’s positive social footprint . 🌍 We are grateful for our longstanding collaboration with HOTREC - Hotels, Restaurants & Cafés in Europe and look forward to advancing this crucial conversation! 🤝 #TOPOSOPHY #HOTREC #SocialSustainability #Hospitality #CommunityEngagement
