Bogotá is participating in the world’s most important business meeting, Expo Dubai 2020🇦🇪, where Colombia’s capital has a program aimed at:
🔺 Attracting investment

In the following video you can see a summary of the first day of Bogota’s program and the director of Invest in Bogota in #Expo2020Dubai 👇🏼

From January 24th to 27th, the city's representation at Expo Dubai was led by Isabella Muñoz, executive director of the Invest in Bogota investment promotion agency. Over four days Ms Muñoz held meetings with representatives of private equity funds interested in investing in the region and companies that may be interested in expanding their operations in Colombia and in Latin America, as well as with government entities and members of the dynamic entrepreneurship ecosystem.

“Bogotá has to take advantage of this international opportunity to strengthen commercial relations with markets that are of great importance and in which we have not historically positioned ourselves,” explained Isabella Muñoz.

The director of Invest in Bogota also adds that the city's participation in this international trade fair is aimed at attracting investments from strategic markets such as that of the Middle East Africa and South Asia (MEASA), with a focus on more than 25 multisectoral projects in the mobility and infrastructure sectors. These projects include the second line of the Bogotá Metro, CANOAS, and Bronx Distrito Creativo, among others.

In terms of entrepreneurship and innovation, this event is part of Bogota’s strategy to publicize the strengths that have made the city one of Latin America’s main markets, as well as to showcase the investment opportunities offered by the dynamic local entrepreneurship ecosystem.

Over the next few months, Bogota will continue to participate in Expo Dubai 2021 at the Colombia Pavilion and will participate in events such as the Global Business Forum LATAM 2022.
