Activities

Four representatives of four companies that have already joined this initiative will talk about their experience.

The president of the Cluster, Cesáreo Pardal, the director of Galicia Tourism, Nava Castro, and the physicist and meteorologist Martín Barreiro will also take part.

The deadline to register for the conference is 21 October, as well as the period to join the club and benefit from its sponsorship programme.

The Galicia Destino Sostible Product Club launched by the Galicia Tourism Cluster with the collaboration of the Xunta de Galicia is making good progress. Around fifty companies have already joined this initiative and the first products promoted within the club are available on its website, so it is time to take stock and take another step forward in its dissemination. With these objectives in mind, the Cluster has scheduled for the 25th of this month a monographic conference entitled “Galicia Destino Sostible: a committed tourism”, which will take place at A Quinta da Auga Hotel Spa Relais & Châteaux, in Santiago de Compostela, from 10.30 a.m.

The director of Galicia Tourism Agency, Nava Castro, will be in charge of opening a day that will allow to know the experience of the representatives of four companies that have already joined the club: the renowned chef Pepe Vieira, from the restaurant that bears his name; Jesús Picallo, from the Hotel O Semáforo de Fisterra; Pablo Mariño, from the seafaring tourism agency Bluscus, and Amelia García, from Atlantis Adventura. In addition, before the round table, there will be a presentation of the product club and a conference of the physicist and meteorologist Martín Barreiro on sustainability and climate change. The president of the Cluster, Cesáreo Pardal, will bring the day to an end, which can also be followed in streaming through the Cluster’s YouTube channel, with the closing speech.

Participation is free, but it is necessary to register in advance through the form on the Product Club website because the number of places is limited and will be allocated in order of registration. The deadline for registration is 21 October, the same date established (after an extension) to join the Club and benefit from the possibility of being eligible for the sponsorship programme for the creation of new products financed by the Xunta de Galicia with more than 300,000 euros.
