On November 10, 11 and 12, the Expo TecnoTelevisión&Radio 2015 fair was held in Bogotá. The commercial exhibition, which took place in pavilion three of Corferias, recorded the visit of 4,274 visitors. There were a total of three days of exhibition that brought together owners, managers and technical staff of the production houses, public and private television and radio networks, not only from Colombia, but also from the Andean Region and Central America.
The fair has become the main showcase for companies in the sector to exhibit the latest technology and services for the industry." In 2015 TecnoTelevisión y Radio was consolidated as the most important training and updating event for radio and television professionals in Colombia and neighboring countries. The participation of professionals from different regions and media, as well as the presence of speakers from eight countries, confirms this. From now on we will begin to work towards making the 2016 version much better," said Max Jaramillo, president of LatinPress Inc, the publisher in charge of organizing the event.
It is the edition that has registered more visitors so far in this new stage under the realization of Latin Press Inc. The organizers expressed their satisfaction with the influx of public, as well as the exhibitors, who met new business prospects on each day of the trade fair. "The growth registered in visitors to the trade fair, of around 12%, is a great indicator that the event has positioned itself with each edition and industry professionals are visiting us," said Albeiro Cortés, Commercial Coordinator of the Academic Program.
Knowledge and updating
The academic program was held on November 9 and 10 at the Wyndham Hotel in Bogotá and had two conference rooms, one for radio and one for television, training that is in charge of 17 speakers from eight countries.
The conferences addressed technical, legal, regulatory issues, all topical that allowed attendees to update themselves and solve their doubts with the help of leading expert professionals. Some such as the technical test with drones or the workshop of content generation for radio, to mention just two examples, caught the attention of the attendees.
