The role and potential of ICT in the visitor attractions sector: the case of Scotland’s tourism industry

Year: 2017

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Despite the ever-increasing integration of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the tourism industry, recent research has suggested that the visitor attraction (VA) sector lags behind other tourism sectors in terms of technological adoption. The proposed study intends to review the role played by ICT by assessing the propensity, and its factors, to employ ICT by VA managers. Ultimately, it aims to establish an assessment framework for ICT capability, to examine the potential of ICT to convey organisational and strategic advantage in the sector.
