TOEP in Tour

Spoke 3 restarts for the presentation of the TOEP Platform in other locations. After the launch on November 29th in Omegna (VB), the University of Eastern Piedmont (UPO) with the support of NOVARECKON will present the web and mobile APP created as part of Spoke 3 Tourism and Culture Industry of the PNRR NODES Project (Digital and Sustainable North West).

The first appointments of 2025 with institutions, tourism companies and operators will be on January 27th in Alba (10.30 am, at Banca d'Alba) and on January 29th in Aosta (from 2.00 pm, at the University of Valle d'Aosta). The interventions will be coordinated by Prof. Cerutti (UPO): on the 27th Prof. Luigi Portinale (UPO) and Dr. Christian Violi (NOVARECKON), while on the 29th Prof. Stefania Cerutti (UPO) and Prof. Stefania Benetti (UPO).

The heart of Spoke3 is human creativity, a fundamental element for innovation in the tourism and culture industries, also in light of economic transformations, globalization processes and climate change. It is in this framework that the TOEP platform was implemented: it includes a web interface for suppliers and a mobile application for users, both integrated with a flexible and cloud-based MongoDB database for scalability. The mobile and web applications were developed using modern technologies (such as Ionic Framework, Node.js, Firebase and TypeScript), to manage user requests, user interface design and communication with the database. A recommendation system was also implemented using machine learning algorithms to analyze user data and generate personalized recommendations.
