Accommodation Singapore introduces
Hold on to your seats, because ITB Berlin 2025 is about to go next-level! If you thought you knew what tourism was about, get ready for a seismic shift as Torino and Benidorm, the 2025 European Capital of Smart Tourism and European Green Pioneer of Smart Tourism, step into the spotlight at the ITB Berlin Convention. These cities will reveal groundbreaking strategies that will completely reshape the global travel industry — from mega events to sustainability and the massive digital transformation happening across Europe.
Torino: From Industrial Hub to Tourism Innovator – Witness the Transformation
On March 5, 2025, at 11:15 AM in Hall 7.1b, Blue Stage, Torino is set to take the stage and explain how this once-industrial city reinvented itself through smart tourism innovation. Torino, the 2025 European Capital of Smart Tourism, has undergone a dramatic transformation from its gritty industrial roots to becoming one of the most inclusive and dynamic tourism hubs in Europe.
Visitors to the EU Smart Tourism stand will be able to see first-hand how technology has been at the heart of Torino’s development, creating a highly personalized travel experience for visitors. Expect real-time data, AI-driven systems, and smart city solutions that have taken the tourism sector by storm.
Benidorm: Sustainability Meets Digital Transformation – Can Tourism Be Saved?
Here’s the deal: Benidorm is one of the first cities to tackle the biggest problem facing tourism today — seasonality. As the tourism world scrambles to adapt to an ever-changing landscape, Benidorm has developed smart solutions that tackle the core issue: responsible tourism management. How can cities balance the growing demand for tourism with the planet’s needs? Benidorm has figured it out. And it’s going to blow your mind.
But that’s not all. The future of travel will be drastically shaped by digital transformation, and Benidorm has doubled down on this with AI-powered systems, data analytics, and smart city infrastructure that are revolutionizing the visitor experience. Could Benidorm be the answer to saving global tourism from destruction? We think it might just be.
Shocking Truth About Sustainability: Is It All Just a PR Stunt?
Throughout ITB Berlin 2025, the hot-button topic of sustainability will be tackled head-on. Torino and Benidorm will spark fiery debates on whether sustainability is just a buzzword or a true commitment. Expect brutal honesty as speakers tear into the industry’s greenwashing practices, exposing the hard truths about what’s really happening behind the scenes.
In one of the most controversial discussions, the Destination Track will investigate the role of mega-events like the Olympics and World Cups in sustainable tourism, with insider case studies from the UK, Turin, and Oulu. The talk will highlight how large-scale events either drive positive change or create major social tensions in host destinations. The positive impact of mega-events is far from guaranteed, and the audience will get an unfiltered view of how large-scale tourism initiatives can either transform a destination or lead to its collapse.
A Sneak Peek at the Future: Digital Transformation and AI in Tourism
But hold on, it gets even crazier. Mary Li, a start-up founder from Singapore, will demonstrate how AI can be seamlessly integrated into a human-centric corporate structure, showing that AI doesn’t have to be a threat to human jobs but a partner in innovation. Could AI-driven tourism be the future? It looks like it’s already here.
The Corporate Culture Clash: The Workforce is Changing, and It’s Coming for Tourism
In a world where skilled labor shortages are wreaking havoc, ITB Berlin 2025 will tackle the elephant in the room. The Corporate Culture Clash Track will explore how the evolving workforce is disrupting the travel industry and why millennial and Gen Z employees are shaking up everything from corporate culture to customer service. It’s time to adapt or perish — the future of tourism is digital, and it’s evolving faster than most businesses can handle.
