| Colombia and Spain: Strengthening Business Ties Through Investment and International Expansion On September 11, at the Hotel Estelar La Fontana in Bogotá, the Colombian–Spanish Chamber of Commerce, with the support of Triana, Uribe & Michelsen and Bufete Barrilero y Asociados, hosted the event Do you want to invest or expand your business in Colombia or Spain?. The session brought together business leaders and professionals to explore key opportunities for expansion and investment between Colombia and Spain. Discussions focused on the legal, tax, labor, and corporate aspects essential for a successful market entry in both jurisdictions. The forum gathered entrepreneurs, investors, and legal experts to discuss the opportunities and challenges of doing business across both countries. The panels addressed relevant topics such as corporate structuring and incorporation, foreign investment regulations, labor compliance frameworks, and double taxation treaties applicable to cross-border operations. We were honored to have distinguished panelists: José Ramón Mínguez (Bufete Barrilero), expert in labor law and Social Security in Spain; Ignacio López-Balcells (Bufete Barrilero), specialist in mergers, acquisitions, and international corporate transactions; Juan Pablo Triana (Partner, Triana, Uribe & Michelsen), with extensive expertise in corporate and tax law in Colombia; and Julián Jaramillo Aguilar (Associate, Triana, Uribe & Michelsen), corporate law and transactions specialist. The event served as a valuable platform for strengthening business relations between Colombia and Spain, offering attendees practical insights for international growth and sustainable expansion. |
