Paper Abstract:
|
The tourism industry is probably the fastest growing and among the most lucrative industries in Greece. It is considered by
many as the flagship of the Greek economy both in terms of the national product it brings and in terms of the employment
opportunities it provides to the local residents. The question this research project attempted to answer is whether the
information and communications technology is sufficiently and effectively used by the various tourism organizations in the
country and what is (or could be) the roles of the technology in helping these organizations improve the value of their product
even more for the benefit of everyone related anyhow. |
