The Role of Residents in Increasing the Attractiveness of a Territorial Mega-product

Summary/Abstract: This article presents the possibilities of residents’ participation in creating the structure of the territorial mega-product. There is proposed the thesis that residents make up a leading group of stakeholders in a territorial unit, which can contribute to an increase in the attractiveness of the territorial mega-product, especially through enriching the potential product level. An attempt to adapt the thesis to the specificity of the territorial mega-product and sub-products was made against the background of theoretical deliberations on the concept of co-creating product value. The conducted surveys included 223 residents from the Podkarpackie Voivodeship and demonstrated that despite residents being included by the authorities in the organisation of occasional events, they are rather unaware of the ongoing matters connected with the development of the unit, and experience resistance on the side of the authorities when it comes to implementation of the proposed ideas and initiatives.
