Kuopio by Nature not only describes the stunning, quintessentially Finnish lakeside nature surrounding Kuopio and the city’s closeness to nature, but also the nature of the city and its people. In addition to the themes, the annual publication is built around three elements, namely hard business facts describing development, soft aspects concerning the atmosphere and family values, and the ease of enjoying leisure time. Elements that make up a good life.

The journal supports the key messages of the city’s marketing and communication strategy, providing their annual focus areas, and it is also part of the city’s influencing communication plan.
