Objective: The purpose of branding is to create a relationship between what the city offers (identity) and the mental image that people have of the city. In particular, Jan Lang considers a positive mental image to be a prerequisite for the survival of cities in global competition and considers the strategy of place branding to be important in this respect. He also sees a direct link between branding and mental image. In fact, the concept of branding has been introduced as a set of measures with different tools to gain competitive advantages between cities, with the aim of attracting capital and tourists, strengthening local identity, introducing the city to its citizens and, ultimately, improving the image at home and abroad. Place branding is defined as a set of measures introduced with various tools to gain competitive advantages between places or cities with the aim of attracting capital and tourists, strengthening local identity, introducing cities and places to their citizens and ultimately improving their image at home and abroad.
