Brief history

Promotrieste - Convention & Visitors Bureau was set up in 1985, thanks to the initiative of a group of private local operators, to manage the Congress Centre, a fundamental element in the development of Trieste as a congress location. With the subsequent participation of the local public bodies (Chamber of Commerce, Municipality, Province and Turism FVG), following the regional rulings that came into force in February 2002, Consorzio Promotrieste became an even more dynamic reality, currently counting 45 members (20% public and 80% private).

Activity

Promotrieste’s members promote and disseminate the profile of Trieste as a national and International congress city. This is done by coordinating congress and tourism events throughout the year with a view to becoming the reference point for all gatherings in Trieste and in the region, but also by promoting the territory and fostering the development of tourism.

In attracting congress tourism towards the regional capital, the Consortium assures the quality of facilities and services, logistic information and organisational assistance at all levels.
In over twenty years of committed and professional activity, more than 2,500 events have been hosted and organised and these represent our experience and curriculum; on each occasion, Promotrieste has proven to be efficient and assure itself a place of relevance on the national and international congress scene.

Over the years, Promotrieste has also worked to promote the territory, thereby consolidating its tourist vocation at the highest level with increasingly qualified proposals. At the same time, Promotrieste has maintained its role as a reference point for local tourism, organising its activity along precise cardinal points:

• development of tourism in the territory through the activity of a Convention & Visitors Bureau;
• stimulus and support for the local tourism sector and its initiatives;
• coordination and monitoring of the tourist package and local initiatives;
• supplying services of various kinds and in various forms.

The Congress Centre

The Stazione Marittima Congress Centre looks out over the sea like a window on the past and the future, opening its doors onto the historical part of a culturally unique town.  Renewed use of space has increased the exhibition area and made it dynamic and multipurpose enabling us to host any kind of event, even simultaneously.  To date, over 160,000 congress participants, exhibitors and visitors have chosen our venue for medical, scientific, economic, trade union, religious and sport congresses, exhibitions and cultural shows, sports events, political summits and conferences, seminars, courses and competitions: discovering and learning to love a truly unique city.
