The Government of the Balearic Islands has awarded Dr. Sebastià Crespí the title of Tourism Ambassador 2025, in recognition of his outstanding professional career in public health and environmental safety applied to tourism.
Among his most notable contributions:
With more than 40 years of experience and projects in over 40 countries, Dr. Crespí has been a key figure in positioning the Balearic Islands as a global benchmark for safe, healthy, and sustainable tourism.
- Co-author of the ABTA (UK) Guide to Good Practices for preventing illness in tourist environments.
- Co-author of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) guidelines for Legionella prevention.
- Lead author of the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines for hotel reopening following the COVID-19 pandemic — a pivotal tool that helped restore global confidence in destinations like the Balearic Islands.
This recognition holds special significance in 2025, as NexBiolinea celebrates its 25th anniversary, reinforcing our shared commitment — between science, business and institutions — to building a safer, more innovative and resilient tourism model.
At NexBiolinea, we are deeply proud of this recognition and sincerely thank all individuals, institutions, and organisations that supported this well-deserved nomination.
