A long chain of encounters, wide-ranging responsibility
The European Capital of Culture year is not a single event, but a long chain of encounters: workshops, performances, exhibitions and people. In the Oulu2026 project, the role of visibility was to make all of this understandable, accessible and inviting. Popa was selected through competitive tendering as the local visibility and print partner. The responsibility covered a broad scope, from individual printed materials to visual implementations for large spaces.
Visibility across spaces and materials
Space-specific visual solutions, window wraps, banners and signage. Visibility products that support the story of each event. At the core of the partnership: local expertise that understands the northern scale, agile response to the changing needs of the cultural sector, responsibility as part of every production, and a clear single point of contact without unnecessary bureaucracy.
Comprehensive visibility solutions
Popa helps Oulu2026 make the Capital of Culture visible where it matters. We provide comprehensive visibility solutions that work in the field at the right time, in the right place and at the right scale.
Popa demonstrated an ability to adapt and respond to changing needs in a highly customer-oriented manne. And in an environmentally friendly way.
