The fair that will take place in the facilities of the Cartagena de Indias Convention Center will have spaces connected to terraces and outdoors to receive exhibitors of both online games and localized games in special conditions that guarantee a commercial meeting with all measures and protocols sanitary.

José Aníbal Aguirre, responsible for the organization of the Latin American fair for twenty-three years, states the following: “We decided to return to the face-to-face events, since we managed to establish together with the fairgrounds and the company in charge of the general assembly of spaces and stands, a design of areas and stands that guarantee a totally biosecure event for exhibitors and operators. It is expected that by the end of the third quarter of the year, mass vaccination in many countries, including Colombia, will have made great progress, which will accelerate it as of May according to what was announced by the National Government.”
The news:
Among the economic reactivation strategies and the promotion of new technologies at Gaming & Technology Expo 2021, the First World Congress of Betting on eSports, CMAe, will be held with an important list of national and international speakers. This academic meeting is focused on the present, future and opportunities of betting in electronic sports that have more followers every day. The land-based / eSports Business Roundtable will be the occasion for executives from these segments to reach meeting points and positive alliances.
Another of the novelties of the Colombian fair will be that from this edition, Gaming & Technology Expo will also be able to be enjoyed remotely, through streaming that will take place from the terraces and the exhibition hall of the Cartagena de Indias Convention Center . In the PANDA MR virtual platform, from any latitude, interested parties can participate in conferences with simultaneous translation. In this way, GAT Expo adds technology to its events to have a greater audience and apply the hybrid formats that are here to stay.
The gaming industry does not stop
Online games continue to grow and localized ones have started their economic reactivation with innovation and modification in regulations, so it is necessary to promote the return of face-to-face business fairs as the engine of development of this powerful line of the economy.
To comply with the capacity of the premises authorized by the Mayor's Office of Cartagena de Indias, entry and access will be done with a special invitation from the exhibitor or the organization. Companies

The leaders of the associations and the regulatory body agree on the need to hold biosecurity commercial meetings that promote the permanence and growth of the industry.
