foto-for-2-0-premsa1The Formentera Council's tourism department reports that when the seventh Formentera 2.0 hits the island from May 2 to 5, international experts will be on hand to share experiences in communication, creativity and emerging technologies. Director Rosa Castells says the event will find “the leading lights of digital culture rendezvousing here on the island”.

“Formentera 2.0 has put the island on the map”, asserted the organiser. “Today Formentera is more than just a tourist destination; our line-up of world-renowned experts means we're also an authentic talent magnet”. The encounter is a chance to connect, share and learn in a familiar, low-key environment far from sprawling convention centres.
