I have extensive experience as a lecturer and keynote speaker on storytelling, place branding, and the role of culture and creative industries in regional development. Drawing on my work as an academic researcher and communications consultant, I tailor talks for diverse audiences, from universities and cultural institutions to public agencies and industry forums.
My lectures explore how narratives shape perceptions of places, and how film, popular culture, and creative sectors contribute to tourism, identity, and long-term value creation. I also address how emerging technologies and media trends influence communication and placemaking strategies.
Lecture Topics Include
- The narrative capital of places: storytelling in place branding and regional identity
- Film and television as catalysts for tourism and local development
- Creative industries as strategic assets in cultural and economic policy
- Digital storytelling and placemaking: from virtual twins to hybrid experiences
- Communicating culture in a dynamic media landscape
