The fair stays loyal to the foundation with which it was born: an international and multidisciplinary forum focused on innovation, culture and tourism with the aim to discuss and address the challenges and opportunities brought by new technologies to manage museums, cultural centers and city destinations.
It will be held in two different stages and formats: firstly, with a series of monthly online meetings starting next June 22th, and secondly, with the face-to-face event in June 2021.This innovative programme seeks to analyze the new context for culture, museums, cities and tourism and the role of innovation and creativity in building new scenarios. It will also provide some solutions to the new needs brought by the technological innovation and digital transformation. This initiative will also provide the opportunity to create a long-term virtual community integrated by speakers, collaborating entities, public and private institutions, tech companies and professionals from the culture and tourism sectors.
