The Valencian Institute of Tourist Technologies (Invat·tur) recently conducted the sixth working meeting of the Supramunicipal Destinations Group of the DTI-CV Network on 30 October, held online. This technical meeting is part of ongoing coordination, cooperation, and continuous improvement efforts within the network.
Representatives from various entities, including the Mancomunitat de la Canal de Navarrés, the Consorci de la Ribera del Xúquer, Tierra Bobal, the Mancomunidad del Rincón de Ademuz, Plana de l'Arc, and Maestrat Ànima Interior, participated in the meeting. These organisations are committed to developing and consolidating a smart tourism management model tailored to the specific needs of supramunicipal territories.
The primary aim of the meeting was to advance the review and update of the Supramunicipal Smart Tourist Destination (DTI) model, originally designed by Invat·tur in 2021. This initiative is unique in Spain and seeks to adapt its system of indicators to meet the new demands for monitoring, evaluation, and decision-making in these areas, while maintaining a common framework for measuring progress in terms of tourism intelligence, sustainability, and innovative management.
During the meeting, a proposal for renewing the specific indicators relevant to supramunicipal areas was presented and discussed. Participants were encouraged to share their insights and observations to enrich the updating process, ensuring that the model effectively addresses the realities and needs of different territories.
The session concluded with a question-and-answer segment, where participants exchanged reflections and suggestions to further strengthen coordination and the sharing of experiences among the group’s entities. Invat·tur emphasised the significance of these technical collaboration spaces and the commitment of participating organisations to advance the establishment of a smart tourism management model that addresses the challenges and opportunities faced by destinations in the Valencian Community.
