The IEI is part of the Comunitat Valenciana Tourism Cluster

The Tourism Cluster of the Valencian Community is an association formed by a large number of Valencian tourism SMEs, agents for the promotion of tourism innovation (research centres, technology institutes, etc.) and agents for the planning of the destination (Town Councils, Provincial Councils, Regional Ministries), whose main objective is to improve the competitiveness of the tourism sector and to facilitate the process of knowledge and technology transfer in the framework of tourism services and offerings.

One of the Cluster's main objectives is to provide the Valencian Community's tourism sector with the necessary tools to improve its international presence and make companies the absolute protagonists of the innovation process, through the implementation of sectorial projects and business cooperation at local, national and European programmes.
