Bogotá, Colombia —
VAOVA was recognized at the 2021 ProColombia National Tourism Awards in the category 'Colombia como hub de eventos: una estrategia diferenciadora'. The recognition acknowledges the company's role in helping position Colombia as a serious Latin American destination for incentive travel, MICE programs and corporate events at a moment when the global meetings industry was navigating exceptional disruption.
The Premios Nacionales de Turismo ProColombia annually recognize organizations that contribute to the international positioning of Colombia as a tourism, events and MICE destination. The 2021 edition placed particular emphasis on resilience, destination positioning and buyer confidence in a recovering market.
The award reinforced VAOVA's specialization in incentive travel and corporate events for international audiences and supported its long-term strategy of building Colombia as a credible alternative inside the Latin American MICE landscape.
“Helping reposition Colombia as a serious events destination during a complex year was a long-term commitment, not a tactical move. ProColombia recognizing that mattered for the entire local industry, not only for us.”
