𝐁𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐨 𝐄𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐚: 𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐓𝐮𝐟𝐟 𝐭𝐨 𝐆𝟕 𝐢𝐧 𝟏𝟓 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 Since its completion, Borgo Egnazia has distinguished itself by hosting international VIPs, and now, even the world leaders of the G7. I had the pleasure of visiting Borgo Egnazia not just as a guest but as a colleague in the tourism sector, allowing me to better understand the entrepreneurial and vacation philosophy they aim to offer. This establishment, with a strong focus on international and especially American tourism, pays attention to the small details that make all the difference. The environment is well-maintained, the staff is attentive to guest needs, and the connection to the local territory is strong. In 2024, the CLARA association was also founded with the aim of reviving and giving new life to ancient arts, starting with the guardians of local traditions, and offering workshops and tastings for guests. Being chosen as the venue for the G7, which concluded yesterday, is just a consequence of the clear entrepreneurial vision and the value proposition that perfectly meets the desires of the resort's target audience. The example of Borgo Egnazia, in an area previously lagging behind more well-known destinations but now among the most appreciated in Puglia, is just one example of the potential to replicate this success in other Italian areas. From villages with houses for 1 euro to abandoned structures rich in history. To achieve similar results, however, one must start with the idea and people who aim to create value for the guest. Investing a lot of money is not enough, as we've seen with many hotels that have changed management repeatedly without ever truly recovering. Surely, all of Puglia will benefit from this great event. Journalists and politicians from around the world have had the chance to experience Puglian hospitality firsthand. Which will be the next reality to stand out on the national stage? #tourism #marketing #visititaly #visitpuglia #g7 #tourismconsulting #resort #hotel
