EU ECO-TANDEM Slovak Info day:

“Solutions for sustainable tourism”

The EU ECO-TANDEM Programme is happy to share a few moments from the EU ECO-TANDEM Slovak Info day, “Solutions for sustainable tourism”, organized on the 26th of October in Bratislava by the Slovak Business Agency, Association of Hotels and Restaurants of Slovakia & Institute of Climate Neutrality - Initiative Green Slovakia. 

The INFO DAY started with the presentation of the opportunities offered by the international project EU ECO-TANDEM and its Biz Programme, which will soon open a call for tourism to small and medium sized enterprises and start-ups working together on eco-innovative pilot projects.

Next on the agenda was the presentation of the first voluntary initiative for the implementation of the principles of sustainability in Slovakia. The Green Slovakia Index is also aimed at strengthening cooperation between the public and private sectors. The partners of the initiative from the public and private sectors presented their experiences with the initiative.

The event closed with a Road Show intended for members of the Association of Hotels and Restaurants of Slovakia. During which, the president of the AHRS presented current news, activities, and useful information for owners, operators and managers in the HORECA sector.

We are so grateful to have an engaging audience, that we could have a discussion on the eco-sustainability challenges. The participants had the opportunity to add identified challenges through the Slido application and shared their experience with us! The participants were really interested in the EU ECO-TANDEM Biz Programme; if you are a tourism SME or an innovative startup, we are sure you wouldn’t want to miss out on learning more about this programme! Here’s the good news! We are looking forward to the next event in Slovakia, the workshop “Green Innovations for Tourism Enterprises!”. Starting from 14:00 to 16:00 on the 23rd of November, 2021.

The workshop will be focusing on the EU ECO-TANDEM project, and the upcoming Biz Programme, where the SMEs and the startups in the tourism and innovative sectors could learn more about how you can win the voucher up to 13,000 euro!! Furthermore, the workshop will also shed lights on the implementation of the principles in Slovakia, thanks to the first voluntary initiative Green Charter - Green Slovakia Index!
