The conference was organised by CEPESE (Research Centre for the Study of Population, Economics and Society) and with the collaboration of University of Porto, IMMAA (International Media Management Academic Association), CIC.Digital (Centre for Research in Communication, Information and Digital Culture), APIMPRESA (Portuguese Press Association), EATSA (Euro-Asia Tourism Studies Association), APTUR (Portuguese Tourismology Association), COOPMAR (Transoceanic Cooperation), Banco Popular and CYTED (Ibero-American Program of Science and Technology for Development). TOCREA gave the opportunity for various scholars and tourism industry professionals and experts to discuss and present their researches related to the synergism that can be explored between the tourism and the creative industries, such as entrepreneurship and project management, marketing and advertisement, material and immaterial heritage and the use of digital products on touristic destinations.
