Bogotá strengthens its position as the hub of major trade fairs and corporate events. Indeed, our city was chosen at the beginning of 2025 as the best leading business destination in South America, ahead of cities such as Buenos Aires, Lima, Medellin, Montevideo, Rio de Janeiro, and Sao Paulo at the World Travel Awards.
