The RESETTING project aim was to facilitate a transition towards more resilient, circular, and sustainable operating models of European tourism companies through the testing and integration of innovative digitally-driven solutions that reduce unnecessary burdens, improve the quality of the tourism experience, contribute to the decarbonisation of the tourism sector and more inclusive economic growth – not only for small and medium-sized companies but also for the residents of the destinations.

The upcoming RESETTING Final Conference thus presents an opportunity to explore the accomplishments of the projects achieved during his lifetime. Attendees will discover the project’s contributions and impact on the tourism sector, with a special spotlight on the cutting-edge innovative tourism tools developed by the project’s partners to empower tourism SMEs in their digital evolution.
