e TecK has embarked on a ground-breaking project to construct a Butterfly Emporium at the Tamana InTech ParK.

The Emporium, which is an education and research centre for neo-tropical butterflies in Trinidad and Tobago, is closely linked to eco-tourism, one of the fastest growing sub-sectors of tourism. Tourism is one of the non-energy sectors identified by the government in the diversification of the country’s economy. The Emporium will aid this effort by uniting world-class entertainment with environmental education, a new trend in eco-tourism called “edu-tainment.”

The first of its kind in the Caribbean, this butterfly-shaped exhibit will be developed on approximately 15 acres of land at the Tamana InTech Park. This gem will be the one of the main attraction at the Park with over 30 species of our local butterflies, making Trinidad and Tobago, a destination of choice for our eco-tourists.
