Event and network management: Application of EFQM for tourist destinations
Özet
Given the importance of event organisations within a specific tourism destination, the main objective of this paper is to introduce the 2005 Universiade Summer Games held in Izmir, Turkey, as a case study, which will be assessed from various perspectives in the context of event and network management. Primary data collection was based on a face to face interview and a telephone conversation carried out among those people taking a direct responsibility in this organisation. The expected consequent benefit would lead to the promotion of destinations both at the local and national levels. Copyright © 2009, Inderscience Publishers.
