Start date: Oct 21, 2016, End date: Oct 20, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The new information and communication technologies (ICTs) radically changed much of our economic and social life, and the internet has become an ideal environment for business and professional activities, with particular interest for the tourism sector. Exploiting them is extremely important, as the internationalization of the activities of a tourist enterprise can become easier and cheaper to create virtual offices and shop windows via web. The very tourist distribution systems have changed dramatically in recent years, which is reflected not only in the traditional distribution channels, such as suppliers of tourism and tour operators, but also to their own tourist destinations and tourism policy formulation.
