My latest article on the power of placemaking has landed a spot in this month's edition of Retail & Leisure International. 📖 In today's landscape, creating meaningful spaces isn't just about aesthetics; it's about striking a harmonious balance between ROI and nurturing community engagement.

Join the conversation: What's your experience integrating placemaking into your business strategy? Have you witnessed the transformation it brings? I’d love to hear your insights.

#Destinationtalk // Qatar Blink is not the promised journey from A to ?

Qatar sounds like an exotic and wealthy destination, a country where everything is possible. What are your thoughts on this topic?  What has been your brand awareness exposure? Qatar is heading major development targeting international commitments like Fifa World Cup 2020 and bidding on the Olympic games. The country is working towards their National 2030 Goal - a National effort to position Qatar as a developed nation in front of the world. There are several major players providing Qatar an international uplift and modern image, including #Qatarairways, the national airline carrier.  Qatarairways is the most visible brand exposure for Qatar on global basis.

Oyeron hablar de ella Aunque no está registrada en la wikipedia, ni por supuesto en la entrañable Larousse que tanto usaron en los 70s y 80s y formó parte de su “ e .ducación” en su infancia y adolescencia, eran sus marcas de consulta y vericidad por aquellos tiempos hasta la creación de la Wikipedia en el año 2001 , es así , el siglo XXI nos trajo la consulta digital, y el alfabeto que tanto se esforzaron los de Barrio Sésamo en enseñarles corre algún riesgo de quedar en el anecdotario popular.

#Destinationtalk // Spinning the wheels

Can you remember the London skyline prior to the London Eye (TLE)?   Well, if you do it is a clear indication of your age - meaning you are older than 14. I vividly remember when "The London Eye" was launched for the millennium celebrations. TLE was the most remarkable and memorable venue ever conceived by mankind. As a venue and attraction, TLE was a crazy concept that went beyond expectations, it achieved and continues to achieve great success.  London took a risk placing the wheel in the heart of the city, embracing and pioneering a new way of sightseeing – thanks to the creative imagination and engineering folks who took the risk of designing such an incredible landmark. Pioneers and visionaries of such extravagant and unique ideas are not always properly acknowledged and all too often their revolutionary ideas do not become a reality.
