Smart Destination InitiativeDeveloping a holistic vision for the integration of technology in tourism |
Spain aims to position itself as a tourist country that uses digitalization to improve tourist experiences and offer services with integrated value at the destination.
The Smart Tourist Destinations Network, launched by the Secretariat of State for Tourism, aims to be the driving force in promoting and encouraging the digital transformation of Spain’s tourism areas and destinations. The aim is to stimulate the sustainable development of tourism and ensure tourist satisfaction as well as improving living conditions for local populations.
One of the main features of the initiative is the progress through collaboration. Today the Smart Tourist Destinations Network has 618 members. Of these, 437 are destinations, 87 institutions, 91 companies and 3 are observers.
