Abstract
This article delves into the intersections of place branding, digital strategic communication, citizenship, and tourism. It explores the dynamic relationship between these concepts, particularly within the context of Brazilian city governments. With an emphasis on reflexivity, the study investigates how governments manage their public image and engage citizens through digital channels. Simultaneously, it examines how these governments strategically position their cities as attractive tourist destinations. By analyzing these tensions and synergies, the article provides insights into the complex landscape of communication strategies employed by Brazilian city governments, which aim to balance citizen engagement and tourism promotion.

Abstract
The online channel, particularly in the food retail area, has been evolving positively and exponentially in the world, including Portugal. Currently, this type of purchase is increasingly part of people's daily lives, even more so with the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic. Consequently, in Portugal, most companies adopt a multichannel strategy, where the physical store and the online store operate independently from each other. However, it is necessary to rethink this channel integration model, which may go through an omnichannel strategy, where the physical store and the online store operate as a single store, and where several advantages are already recognized in terms of the consumer's shopping experience. The main objective of this study is to understand the strategy implemented by the company studied, Pingo Doce, through an analysis and description of its channels. To better understand the strategy of the company under study, a semi-structured exploratory interview was carried out with one of the people in charge of Pingo Doce's digital channels, to understand the strategy used by the company and thus complement the data obtained through direct observation and bibliographic research. At the end of the work developed it was possible to understand the positioning of Pingo Doce in the online food retail area and their online and offline distribution strategies.

Abstract
The key question that will be addressed in this research is whether advertising narratives feature initiatives within the ESG - Environment, Social and Governance - framework. Investors increasingly value companies that promote sustainable impact actions, something that the promoting companies report in detail in their ESG reports directed at corporate stakeholders. To identify and understand how brands present such initiatives to the consumer market, we checked campaigns awarded with the Golden Lion of Advertising at Cannes 2022. The methodological cut involved three award categories, being analyzed 19 campaigns from 10 different countries. Besides the bibliographical survey on discourse analysis and content analysis, this exploratory qualitative and quantitative research had the inductive method to direct the individual analysis of each campaign. As a result, we identified that more than half of the campaigns address aspects related to ESG initiatives, being the social scope addressed by most of the campaigns. A result that provokes new hypotheses and possibilities of research continuity.

Abstract
Following the lack of existing studies about the applications development and use in the event industry, this research aims to analyze the use of applications as a tool to improve event communication. The methodology used includes an exploratory method. This research methodology is based on a review of the literature, a semi-structured interview with the CEO of the company and a case study with participant observation of the French start-up Invent App which provides event applications. The study demonstrate that the event app use allows to ease the event organization, to improve the event communication but also the interactivity and the participant engagement. All of this, increasing the customer experience but also having a part in the customer digital experience improvement. Event applications could be thus considered as amarketing and event communication tool. The research has the limitation to its application within a single company in France. Furthermore, the point of viewadopted is the one of the event organizers and not the event participant one. This research helped to better understand the role that event applications can have in the event industry and particularly in the communication around an event. In addition, this made it possible to understand the perception of market requirements and the characteristics expected of an event application.
