We’ve just updated our Page with a new profile picture, because this year, we are celebrating that the International Place Branding Association has been around for ten years! Isn’t that amazing! Already ten years! We’re celebrating that with a special 2026 logo and festivities at our tenth annual IPBA conference in Lisbon, 28-30 October this year. Our tenth annual conference, 1.2K followers on Facebook, 2.4K followers on LinkedIn, 1.3K subscribers to our mailing list; and 500 delegates attending our conferences over the last ten years. A weird, but lovely global community that has claimed its role and presence in the world. It will continue to do so for the next ten years (and more)..
