Events at the centre
The DOIT Centre’s events provide an open forum for exchanging knowledge, showcasing good practices and connecting people interested in innovation, digitalisation and the sustainable development of tourism. Through workshops, lectures, demonstrations and other formats, we bring together students, researchers, external partners and the wider public, creating opportunities for new collaborations, trials and projects.
