Framed by appropriate conceptual frameworks to define the contemporary dynamics of innovation in tourism, case studies supported by advanced quantitative methods and developed in rural and urban areas of Asia, Europe, and Africa are presented and discussed. The concept of smart specialization inspires the formulation of regional innovation policies and strategies, emphasizing the importance of endogenous resources and existing territorial capabilities. By exploring the diversity and variety of each economy to develop inter-sectoral relations, this approach aims at promoting the creation of spillover effects of innovation processes supported by adequate key enabling technologies, potentially leading to the sustainable development of places, regions, and countries. As an activity that mobilizes contributions from different economic sectors, tourism may play a central role in such strategies. As described and discussed in this Special Issue, aspects related to the creative sectors of economies, information and communication technologies, traditional products and lifestyles, food production, or diverse cultural values can be mobilized to generate innovative and sustainable solutions for tourism development. 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 610 $aaccessible tourism for all 610 $aChina-ASEAN 610 $acluster analysis 610 $acompetitiveness 610 $acooperation structure 610 $acultural mediating effects 610 $adestination 610 $adisability equality 610 $aDPSIR 610 $adriving factors 610 $aexperience design 610 $afactor analysis 610 $afuzzy numbers 610 $agamification 610 $agastronomy tourism 610 $agovernance 610 $ahalal industry 610 $ahalal tourism 610 $ahappiness 610 $aindicators 610 $ainnovation 610 $aIslamic finance 610 $alife-cycle 610 $alivelihood sustainability index 610 $aMaasai Mara 610 $aMediterranean 610 $amobile application 610 $anature interpretation 610 $anetwork 610 $aorientation signage 610 $apanel data 610 $aPodhale region 610 $aproximity 610 $aregional cuisine 610 $aregional tourism 610 $arelatedness 610 $arevisit intention 610 $arural ecological environment 610 $arural revitalization strategy 610 $arural tourism 610 $asmart specialization 610 $asmart tourism 610 $asmart tourism technology experience 610 $asocial sustainability 610 $aspecialization 610 $asustainability 610 $asustainability indicators 610 $asustainable livelihoods 610 $asustainable tourism development 610 $aTOPSIS 610 $atour guiding 610 $atourism cooperation 610 $atourism policy 610 $atourist satisfaction 610 $aTrabzon 610 $atraditional and regional products 610 $avisitor codes 610 $avisitor management 610 $avisual impairment 615 7$aTechnology: general issues 700 $aRomão$b João$4edt$01065111 702 $aRomão$b João$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557396803321 996 $aTourism, Smart Specialization and Sustainable Development$93038517 997 $aUNINA
