Bogotá, Colombia —
VAOVA has been admitted to the GPS Destinations DMC Collective as its Colombia partner, effective February 2025. The Collective is a curated network of independently owned Destination Management Companies serving 100+ destinations, designed to be the trusted resource that US meeting and incentive professionals use to short-list destinations across the Americas, Europe, Africa and South Pacific.
Through the Collective, US planners gain a single qualified entry point to evaluate Colombia alongside other premier MICE destinations, with VAOVA acting as the on-the-ground operator in Bogotá, Medellín and Cartagena. Selection into the Collective requires demonstrated operational standards, financial standing and creative capability — the criteria US corporate buyers and Fortune 500 procurement teams routinely apply.
The partnership complements VAOVA's existing US relationships, including international agencies and corporate clients that fly directly from Miami, New York, Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles and other US gateways into Colombia.
“The US is the single largest source market for travel into Colombia. Being inside the GPS Destinations DMC Collective means American planners can find us the same way they find any other established incentive destination — and that is exactly the access Colombia needs at this stage.”
