The initiative received an overwhelming response, with over 300 applications from Italy, France, Spain, Greece, and Cyprus. After careful evaluation, the most innovative project ideas were selected, reflecting the principles of digital transition and ecosustainability.

Selection criteria and waiting list

The fuTOURiSME consortium based its evaluations on objective criteria, such as relevance, quality, degree of innovation, and impact on the tourism and hospitality sector, ensuring that applicants met the required standards.

A waiting list has also been created: should any of the selected winners decline, some proposals may still be eligible for funding.

Next steps: stay tuned

Soon, all applicants will receive an email with an analysis of their project proposal, regardless of the outcome. Only the winners will receive instructions on how to access the 30,000-euro funding.
