The ICTr-CE project, funded by the INTERREG Central Europe program, aims to enhance the business potential of the Iron Curtain EuroVelo Trail, a long-distance cycling route that spans from Poland to Croatia along the European Green Belt. Running from March 2023 to February 2026, the project focuses on developing new tourism products and a participatory business model to boost innovation among local businesses. By involving SMEs, tourism boards, and NGOs, the project seeks to improve the quality and sustainability of tourism offerings along the trail, ultimately fostering economic prosperity and minimizing negative impacts.
