Sverre Knutsen, Managing Director of Arendal By

Places.nu has simply solved a challenge we’ve had in Arendal for many years: the need for an up-to-date event calendar combined with a good, clear map. What matters most is how easy the platform is to use. That means organisers actually use it, and events end up on one shared platform that benefits the whole city.

Stig Arild Pettersen, Secretary General of the Norwegian Sauna Society

Places is an incredibly important tool and a great collaboration partner for the Norwegian Sauna Society. The platform helps our members get strong visibility both within the network and to users in Norway and internationally. For us, the combination has been especially important: we keep central control over the community, while participants create and edit their own places and events on the map. Places is an agile, intuitive, and efficient platform! I truly believe many other organizations could benefit from using Places as a platform for their networks and activities.
