Benidorm will reward Fitur, Segittur and Microservices on Tourism Day

20 September 2019
Benidorm premiará en el Día del Turismo a Fitur, Segittur y Microservices

On the occasion of the celebration of International Tourism Day, the City Council will award the 'City of Benidorm' Tourism Award to the International Tourism Fair of Madrid (Fitur), to the State Society for the Management of Innovation and Tourism Technologies (Segittur ) and the company Microservices, in the International, National and Local / Autonomous categories respectively. The list of awards agreed by the Board of Spokespersons at the proposal of the mayor, Toni Pérez, includes awarding the Special Mention of said awards to the director of the municipal Department of Design, Alejandro Guijarro Carbonell, recently deceased.

The proposal will be ruled next Wednesday in the Internal Regime Information Commission, and the delivery of these Awards will be held at an institutional event on September 30, at 12 noon, in the City Hall.

In this edition, Benidorm recognizes the trajectory of Fitur, the first annual event for world tourism professionals, which will be celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2020, and in which Benidorm has been present since its inception. It also distinguishes the role of SEGITTUR in promoting technological innovation applied to the Spanish tourism sector, being one of those responsible for Standard UNE 178501, which regulates the Intelligent Tourism Destinations Management System, in which Benidorm has been the First destination to be certified worldwide.

At the local level, the City Council will reward the contribution of Microservices by facilitating the work to numerous companies in the tourism sector for which prevention and health control is, in addition to a legal requirement, a sample of its quality.

Finally, Benidorm will recognize Alejandro Guijarro's contribution to the image and tourism promotion of Benidorm through the design, projection and construction management of the destination stands for national and international tourism fairs; as well as those linked to the design of the urban scene of the city.
