An event based on “co-creation”: unprecedented opportunities for creative destinations (open call)
Creative tourism comes together in an unprecedented event that redefines the format of traditional conferences. With a clear commitment to co-creation, this event invites attendees to stop being mere spectators and become active participants in the meeting. Pitches, interviews, and panels will be the tools through which each participant can share their projects, experiences, and visions, thus enriching the collective dialogue. Unlike conventional conferences, where participation is often limited to passive listening, thisevent is based on the conviction that each attendee brings valuable knowledge and experiences worthy of being shared with the entire community. Therefore, the Creative Tourism Network® invites all participants to actively engage throughshort presentations, interviews, and panel discussions, fostering a space for genuine co-creation.The call is still open, and destinations can submit their proposals using the pre-registration form before September 8.
