Our partners from the Dominican Republic, Alfonso Lomba and Arturo Morales, immersed themselves in the vibrant atmosphere of FITUR, the premier annual gathering for global tourism professionals held in Madrid, Spain. This prominent business forum provided an unparalleled opportunity to connect with industry leaders and cultivate innovative ideas, in a forum covered by more than 1,170 media outlets. Cutting-edge topics were explored at this renowned event, ranging from the impact of Big Data and artificial intelligence to the creation of smart tourism destinations and the flourishing of start-ups in this field.
Beyond engaging with fellow professionals, our partners delved into informative platforms where they gained insights into the FITUR Next observatory. This tool, designed as a guide to discern future tourism trends, enables the projection of guidelines that generate a positive impact on visitors, residents, destinations, and the planetary environment. It also acknowledges the importance of considering not only economic aspects but also social, cultural, and environmental factors in the evolution of the tourism industry.
Alfonso Lomba and Arturo Morales’ participation in FITUR not only provided a valuable opportunity to forge connections and acquire cutting-edge knowledge, but also strengthened them in good practices to continue advising companies with interest in investing in Tourism and Real Estate in the Dominican Republic.
