The Country Brand- An Objective That Is Difficult To Accomplish

Author

  • Gabriela ZAI

Abstract

In a world where everything is a brand, countries cannot make an exception, even more so as they find themselves in an almost constant competition trying to attract tourists, investors, talents and credibility. A powerful brand attracts quality however, in order to be strong, a brand must also be positive, attractive and sustainable. Next to the brand, the country’s image represents one of the key-elements of promoting any country. Although Romania finds itself quite far from having a well-articulated brand and country image, efforts are being put in this direction and we hope that, in a not so distant future, they will be put to practice and have the desired effects.
