The Nova SBE Westmont Institute of Tourism and Hospitality was established in 2020 through a partnership between Westmont Hospitality Group and Nova SBE. We are tremendously grateful for their continued support over the years.
Our work is structured around three pillars: Research, Education, and Community.
At the heart of our approach is the belief that hospitality is a transversal concept that can be applied across industries and areas of activity, impacting how organizations create meaningful experiences, and deliver value.
Develop leaders equipped to transform Tourism & Hospitality through Master’s programs, executive education and workshops that combine academic knowledge, management skills and real-world experience.
Generate and share rigorous, industry-relevant knowledge through applied research, studies and insights that advance sustainability, regeneration and customer experience excellence.
Connect academia, industry and society to drive impact through events, collaborative initiatives and thought leadership that foster knowledge sharing, dialogue and innovation in Tourism & Hospitality.
Nova SBE Westmont Institute of Tourism & Hospitality is one of the 10 international must-watch institutes for Hospitality Management, according to Higher Education Digest.
The Westmont Hospitality Hall is located at the Carcavelos Campus and aims to be a learning hub for excellence in customer service and professional skills improvement.
The Westmont Hospitality Hall is a flexible quality space inspired by the hotel's lobby concept. It is meant for student use, ideal for sharing knowledge and co-creating experiences.
It's a 200-square meter lounge with two mezzanines for small study groups, coworking, casual meetings, and events. It is equipped with sophisticated audio and visual support system. There is also a pantry for coffee breaks, breakfast, cocktails, and three meeting rooms with an incredible sea view.
The Westmont Hospitality Hall is also available for independent corporate events.
