City marketing
- The emergence of city marketing: government, businesses,
residents
De industrialisatie in de negentiende eeuw had tot gevolg dat
fabrieken in de steden werden opgericht en dat werknemers in
de directe omgeving van deze fabrieken woonden. De
aantrekkelijkheid van de stad werd voortaan vooral bepaald
door locatiefactoren. Grondstoffen in de buurt of een gunstige
logistieke locatie waren cruciale elementen voor de beslissing
van fabrikanten om zich op een bepaalde plek te vestigen. Dit
is nog steeds te zien in verschillende landen. In de tweede
helft van de twintigste eeuw ontstond vooral in de westerse
wereld de dienstensector en sloten de fabrieken hun poorten of
werden ze verplaatst naar lagelonenlanden in andere delen van
de wereld. De levensstandaard van de mensen nam toe en het
werd mogelijk om buiten de stad te wonen. Naast de
historische steden en industriesteden ontstonden er
slaapsteden doordat mensen de industriesteden verlieten.
- The rise of city marketing
Als reactie op de uittocht van de steden zagen de
stadsbesturen de dringende noodzaak van actie in, omdat ze
niet alle inwoners wilden verliezen. Er werd erkend dat er iets
moest gebeuren om de stad aantrekkelijker te maken voor alle
partijen. Om de lokale economie op een hoog niveau te
houden, was het nodig om de stad te 'verkopen', zodat de
promotie van de stad werd ingezet en citymarketing als
marketinginstrument werd geboren. In een race om inwoners
en bedrijven te behouden en aan te trekken, zijn steden, maar
ook gebieden of zelfs landen steeds competitiever geworden.
