Abstract:
Territorial marketing could be an effective strategy leading to economic development. Considering the developments in contemporary society and economy, it has become a necessity. Successful territorial marketing could lead to place branding, with many long-term benefits for a region, its constituents and stakeholders. The process of developing and implementing a territorial marketing is multifaceted. The present paper makes a brief investigation on the conceptual background to better understand this process. The paper presents the steps of designing such a strategy and the accompanying challenges. It also investigates to what extent it is possible to put culture at the core of a territorial marketing strategy. Two models of territorial marketing based on heritage are succinctly presented: cultural districts and cultural routes.
