LISBON, PORTUGAL / ACCESSWIRE / November 12, 2024 / The Web Summit, one of the most important technology congresses in the world, starts this Monday in Lisbon, Portugal. Invest in Bogota, an investment promotion agency, will be participating in the event to showcase the business opportunities the city has in the field of information technologies.
During the event, more than 3,000 companies from 160 countries and more than 1,000 investors are expected to gather, with an attendance that could exceed 70,000 people, according to figures from the organizers.
Invest in Bogota, through the entity's Investment Promotion Management, will seek to connect companies, startups and investors that are disruptive, innovative and outstanding in the industry, so that they can consider Bogota as an investment and business destination in Latin America.

Software development has become a strength for a city like Bogota whose economy is based on the provision of cutting-edge services and which aims to become stronger and stronger.
This is how the trained human resources, the institutional ecosystem for the digital economy, as well as a good support infrastructure for the operation, have generated the right environment for recognized foreign companies such as Amazon, Amadeus, Globant, Oracle, IBM, and Endava, among many others, have chosen the capital of Colombia as a destination for IT investment.
