The city is a cultural, educational, administrative and industrial center, and its motto is rightly “Growing, but not aging”. Sofia is a unique mix of different eras, styles and views, as well as a kind of bridge between East and West. These unique characteristics can become the basis of a strong city brand, which positions Sofia as a competitive world capital, attracting people, ideas and capital.
