Helsingborg Region in Collaboration with Familjen Helsingborg Photo: Mickael Tannus/Familjen Helsingborg Close Your Eyes Helsingborg Region in collaboration with Familjen Helsingborg Photo: Mickael Tannus/Familjen Helsingborg Close your eyes. What do you see when you think about Skåne? Undulating fields of rapeseed, villages where the roads winds its way between half-timbered houses and long sandy beaches. If so, then you're quite right. But here in Northwest Skåne we have a little bit more of everything. There's drama here, too. Söderåsen features wild primeval forests and Kullaberg draws visitors who come to marvel at the precipices and caves. Welcome to the Helsingborg Family!

  • Case Study Sofiero Castle & Castle Park
    Cultural Heritage & Brand Communication - Case Study Sofiero Castle & Castle Park Master Thesis Author: Maike Stegemann Examiner: Stefan Gössling Supervisor: Erika Andersson Cederholm SMMM20 Spring, 2019 Abstract This study examines the effect of different organizational aspects on the internal brand communication of an organization in the context of cultural heritages. As cultural tourism is growing and becoming more competitive, this particular tourism branch has to be introduced to internal brand communication to provide a good base for branding. The topic has been studied in a case study. As a case Sofiero Castle & Castle Park has been selected as its public ownership represents a special case in the industry. Most cultural heritages are to a majority in private ownership. Previous studies have only analyzed an organization’s internal brand communication in relation to a certain organizational aspect. In this study, the internal brand communication is analyzed on the basis of four different organizational aspects. These organizational aspects are external brand communication, leadership, brand stakeholders and organizational structure. In order to research the field of interest, seven semi-structured interviews and five days of go-alongs have been conducted. The research findings were analyzed with the help of thematic analysis. The study’s results show that each organizational aspect has an influence on how the internal brand communication is done and to whom it has to be addressed. Therefore, the study suggests taking into account a holistic picture of the organizational aspects when analyzing the influence on the internal brand communication. Focusing only at a particular organizational aspect will not outline what needs to be considered when performing internal brand communication as interconnections between the organizational aspects have been identify.

  • Summer Gardens & Castles in Denmark & Sweden
    American Horticultural Society Travel Study Program SUMMER GARDENS & CASTLES IN DENMARK & SWEDEN July 15–26, 2019 WITH AHS HOST TERRY HAYES AND TOUR LEADER ANTONIA LLOYD OWEN OF SPECIALTOURS Dear Friends of the American Horticultural Society, I personally invite you to join our latest AHS tour, “Summer Gardens & Castles in Denmark & Sweden,” July 15 to 26, 2019. The trip is so chock-full of delightful experiences that I had to omit many highlights from this brief overview, so be sure to peruse the full itinerary. We’ll begin in Copenhagen, Denmark’s capital and a gastronomic overachiever with a combined 19 Michelin stars. The United Nations’ World Happiness Report has rated Denmark number one — yes, the happiest place on Earth — three times in the past six years, and I’m sure this charming country will have the same effect on you. As the tour’s title indicates, spectacular gardens and equally fabulous castles and palaces will vie for your attention. For instance, while Sweden’s Sofiero Palace is impressive in its own right, I know you will be equally enchanted by its vaunted rhododendron gardens, which feature more than 400 different species and varieties. How often do you get to see a nearly extinct species? Among the many wonders we’ll behold at Gothenburg Botanical Garden — one of the largest and most beautiful in northern Europe — is the rare Easter Island tree, which no longer exists in its native environment. We’ll receive the royal treatment at Drottningholm Palace, the residence of the Swedish royal family. This magnificent Baroque palace, theater, park, and Chinese Pavilion constitutes one of Stockholm’s three World Heritage Sites.
