Bilbao Turismo & Convention Bureau

Bilbao Turismo (Bilbao Tourism), previously Bilbao Iniciativas Turísticas (Bilbao Tourism Initiatives), was created in 1992 by the Bilbao Town Council as a Local Autonomous Organisation. In 1999 it changed its legal status and became a municipally-owned Limited Company

Its aims and objectives are reflected in the Company Acts, and can be summarised in the company's corporate statement: "Bilbao Turismo is a Limited Company created to strategically manage Bilbao as a tourism product, with the task of supporting the city's economic development via the collaboration with other public and private agencies"

Bilbao Turismo has a department called Bilbao Convention Bureau that has the infrastructure required to hold meetings and conferences in our city.
