LatAm corporate event from Mexico: the regional convention that aligns 12 countries

The LatAm corporate event is the regional convention that brings together the corporate's subsidiaries in Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia and Central America (Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama, Dominican Republic). It is the largest regional event a multinational with regional headquarters in Mexico City runs: typically 300 to 1,500 attendees, bilingual Spanish-Portuguese (with English when there is a North American office), bilingual gift, simultaneous translation, international flight logistics and customs documentation for the gift.
