ES.CO is the first NEIGHBOURHOOD DMO to be set up in Italy. A project financed by the Lazio Region to implement measures to support tourist destinations.
The members of the DMO, coordinated by Destination Manager Michela Valentini, in the full spirit of a collaborative community, work to create proposals, opportunities, events, and services that make life fuller for those who live there and for those who stop only for a short period or a few days.
The ES.CO DMO promotes increasingly sustainable - in the sense of lasting – tourism, in the awareness that the quarters of Rome’s old-city centre are not only places to be visited but also homes to the people who live there.
