The balance is totally positive. The comments received from the exhibitors at this 13th edition are quite encouraging and we achieved our main objective: the exhibitors had a high level of satisfaction. We responded well to their trust, that is our only real capital invaluable, as we stated in our report to Yogonet prior to the fair.

What has been the feedback from exhibitors?
We had an excellent balance submitted by domestic and foreign exhibitors. The customer satisfaction survey conducted by 3A Productions, at the conclusion of the conference, shows excellent results. I highlight some comments as organization of fairs, such as brand positioning, business and contacts, and the interest of the vast majority of manufacturers and distributors to continue to be exhibitors at the show in 2012.
How do you think that current situation of the Colombian market has affected the development of the event?Regarding the invitation of operators, analyzing the figures and visitor records, FADJA was not affected and I want to highlight that it was the perfect scenario for the meeting and the interaction between operators and representatives of the Dirección de Impuestos y Aduanas Nacionales DIAN, the new regulatory body, where they discussed issues of vital importance for the future of gaming industry in Colombia.
For the first time the show organized Miss Gaming Colombia. What has been the result of an event like this?
Undoubtedly, it was an event that totally caught the attention of manufacturers and operators, not only by the beauty of Colombian women, but also by the social responsibility project that will result from choosing the winner, with the leadership of ACOJA.
There were three events in the context of FADJA, all "filled to the roof ', in which 17 candidates from various casinos and game rooms in the country showed their sympathy and desire to keep the crown. The comments we received were entirely positive. Miss Gaming Colombia knows that 2012 will be overwhelming.
When will be held FADJA 2012?
Again in April. We likely will opt for the same dates for next year.
