Through an open innovation network, tourism stakeholders gain access to intellectual capital that they lack, such as human, structural and relational capital.<\/p><p>Partners from the V4 countries, which are much better positioned (Poland (27), Czech Republic (33) and Hungary (37)), are invited to support the formation of such a network by sharing the know-how of tourism networks in their countries. The project task is to lead the shift towards the open innovation paradigm by helping stakeholders to open up their boundaries, overcome scepticism and hesitation and build a network based on trust and commitment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" id=\"e-n-tab-content-3498252\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-tab-title-3498252\" data-tab-index=\"2\" style=\"--n-tabs-title-order: 2;\" class=\" elementor-element elementor-element-37fbf9d e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"37fbf9d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-31f8c87 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"31f8c87\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8cde771 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8cde771\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Uniwersytet w Kragujevacu\u00a0(serb.\u00a0\u0423\u043d\u0438\u0432\u0435\u0440\u0437\u0438\u0442\u0435\u0442 \u0443 \u041a\u0440\u0430\u0433\u0443\u0458\u0435\u0432\u0446\u0443)<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Wydzia\u0142 Hotelarstwa i Turystyki w Vrnja\u010dka Banja<\/strong><\/p><p>Wydzia\u0142 Hotelarstwa i Turystyki w Vrnja\u010dka Banja jest cz\u0119\u015bci\u0105 Uniwersytetu Kragujevac i jedynym publicznym wydzia\u0142em specjalizuj\u0105cym si\u0119 w dziedzinie hotelarstwa, turystyki i gastronomii w Serbii.

The study indicates that fostering innovation within the tourism sector requires continuous interaction, trust-building, and knowledge exchange among multiple stakeholders, rather than isolated efforts by single organizations. Higher education institutions play a pivotal role in this process as &#8222;knowledge brokers,&#8221; effectively bridging business, public administration, and local communities to support evidence-based tourism management. The research also demonstrated that targeted, short-term initiatives\u2014such as dedicated workshops and digital platforms\u2014enable the rapid strengthening of relationships and a tangible increase in collaboration network density.<\/p>\n<p>Please find the link to the report below:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/iz.uek.krakow.pl\/kt\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2026\/07\/04-Final-project-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Final Project Report<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Misj\u0105 Mi\u0119dzynarodowego Funduszu Wyszehradzkiego, kt\u00f3ry finansowa\u0142 realizacj\u0119 projektu, jest wspieranie zr\u00f3wnowa\u017conej wsp\u00f3\u0142pracy regionalnej w Europie \u015arodkowej.

The project will enable innovation-driven, sustainable tourism development by engaging stakeholders in the tourism ecosystem to share a wide range of innovative tourism practises through an open innovation tourism network that will be formed in Vrnja\u010dka Banja, one of the most visited tourism destinations in Serbia. Open innovation provides access to external sources of knowledge, skills, ideas and solutions that are beneficial for various tourism businesses, especially entrepreneurs and SMEs that dominate the tourism industry and often lack the resources to capitalize on new opportunities in the very dynamic tourism market. Through an open innovation network, tourism stakeholders gain access to intellectual capital that they lack, such as human, structural and relational capital. Partners from the V4 countries, which are much better positioned (Poland (27), Czech Republic (33) and Hungary (37)), are invited to support the formation of such a network by sharing the know-how of tourism networks in their countries. The project task is to lead the shift towards the open innovation paradigm by helping stakeholders to open up their boundaries, overcome scepticism and hesitation and build a network based on trust and commitment.
