The challenge 

The city marketing faces the challenge that locals and tourists increasingly demand a seamless information experience across online and offline channels. This includes publications on events, gastronomy, and services, as well as trade and available goods. Cities and regions that are only represented offline lose visibility, relevance, and attractiveness.

Online City Marketing with Platoyo – for modern cities and regions!

This way, we bring the full range of the city's offerings online, making it easy for customers to discover and consume regional offers!
