The InvestEU program aims to trigger €372 billion investments across the EU over 2021-2027. It encourages investments to enhance the competitiveness, sustainability, and value chains of the tourism sector. The portal provides a wealth of information including tourism funding criteria, programme description, and examples of supported projects. The primary objective of the InvestEU is to support measures that are sustainable, innovative, and digital, which could potentially lessen the climate and environmental impact of the sector.
