The International Tourism Trade Fair (FITUR 2025), one of the most eagerly awaited tourism events on a global level, opened its doors at Ifema Madrid on 22nd 2025. This year, beyond being a meeting point for thousands of tourism professionals and lovers, FITUR promises to mark a before and after in the measurement and analysis of the behaviour and emotions of its visitors thanks to the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) technology.
Emotions: The new focus of experiences
In an environment where capturing the attention of attendees is essential, participating companies are betting on creating unforgettable experiences that generate an emotional impact on their visitors. But how do you measure the success of these strategies? The answer lies in technology. This year, through AI systems developed by Golineuro AI, more than 80 million emotions expressed non-verbally in the 78 stands and pavilions of the fair, distributed over an area of 40,000 square metres, will be analysed.
Emotion measurement not only makes it possible to evaluate the interest or emotional connection generated by each exhibitor’s proposals but also to identify behavioural patterns, visual interest (through eye-tracking), and the impact of promotional campaigns in real time.

A Comprehensive Behavioural Analysis of FITUR 2025
The technology deployed at FITUR 2025 goes beyond emotion. Thanks to intelligent sensors, organizers and exhibitors can access a complete x-ray of the activity in their spaces. Among the data that will be collected, the following stand out:
- Number of attendees in each monitored area, with segmentation by age and gender.
- Mobility and behavior of visitors in the area.
- Direction of gaze and visual interest through eye-tracking.
- Counting meetings and professional encounters is key data to evaluate networking.
These data are obtained in real-time thanks to Goli Neuromarketing’s AI platform, guaranteeing immediate analysis and the possibility of adjusting strategies during the event.
How Golineuro AI works
The success of this innovative technology lies in the Golineuro AI platform, which combines wireless sensors installed in the stands and halls with an advanced analysis system.
- Guaranteed privacy: Although the sensors collect behavioral and emotional data, they do not store images or personal data, in compliance with international privacy regulations.
- Private access to data: Each exhibitor can visualize their metrics through Purple Data, a secure platform that offers exclusive password access.
- Constant evolution: Golineuro AI has almost a decade of experience in monitoring large events and commercial spaces, which ensures reliable and detailed results.
At FITUR 2025, 70 wireless sensors will be distributed throughout the 78 monitored stands, setting a record in the scope of analysis compared to previous years.
