The creation of the Tourism Innovation Department of Eurecat is the result of the merger process, at the beginning of 2019, of the Foundation of the Scientific and Technological Park of Tourism and Leisure of Catalonia and Eurecat. The Foundation, created in 2006, has become a central agent in the knowledge and innovation network of the tourism and leisure sector.
