At Zartico, we believe tourism is a force for good.

As one of the world’s top economic engines, tourism drives prosperity in countless places across the globe and connects travelers with new cultures and experiences. For small or rural communities facing economic challenges, tourism offers a pathway to advancement by bringing in outside dollars, creating jobs, generating tax revenues, and opening the door to new possibilities.

We’re making it easier for state tourism offices to support emerging destinations. 

Zartico is partnering with state tourism offices to provide low-cost access to Z-Light, a streamlined reporting tool powered by industry-leading data insights. 

Destination leaders in economically distressed regions are accustomed to doing a lot with a small staff and an even smaller budget. Access to data through commissioned research studies or expensive reports is simply out of reach.

With Z-Light, leaders can keep a finger on the pulse of what’s happening in their communities and identify new opportunities for growth.
