The FU-TOURISM project is spearheading a transformative pledge to enhance the resilience and competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the tourism sector. Running from September 2023 to September 2026, this commitment focuses on integrating sustainability, innovation, and digitalization principles.
By applying regenerative economic principles and people-centered technology, the project pledges to train over 300 tourism SMEs lacking expertise in these areas. Additionally, it aims to foster synergies and networks for developing cutting-edge projects and establish a foundational training program for the green and digital transition. This initiative represents a significant step towards a more sustainable and adaptive future for tourism SMEs.
