There are already some successful examples,such as Vila Nova de Famalicão (VNF). This region was involved in the creation of an industrial tourismnetwork within the brand of “Famalicão Cidade Têxtil”, to promote industry and industrial heritage. In thispiece of research, we seek to assess the perceptions of the local entities involved in this network project inVNF. Methodologically, after carrying out a questionnaire survey, it is possible to identify that, in most ofthe partners, the dissemination of information about the company and the product was the main reason fortheir integration, also highlighting the increase in local tourism and the desire to open doors to the public.It is concluded that the project was a bid by the municipality to allow for valorisation of industries, whetherthey are in operation or not, attracting more and more visitors.
