In order to support Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), which make up to 85% of the tourism sector globally (OECD, 2021), UNWTO presented the Digital Futures for SMEs Programme to the General Assembly in November 2021 and launched it officially to the global audience in May 2022.

UNWTO's pledge is to provide digital training for free on connectivity, business growth, e-commerce, big data and analytics, payments and security to at least 1 million SME beneficiaries by 2030 in partnership with the largest technology companies.

SMEs are encouraged to join this programme through https://www.unwto.org/digitalfutures and to undertake the Digital Diagnostic Tool to identify the path they should focus on for boosting their level of digitization.
