The Ambassador of Colombia H.E. Juan Jose Quintana.
On 31 October 2016, the Colombian Ambassador Juan Jose Quintana gave a lecture about Colombia. It was addressed to the Dutch students of the “Doing Business in Latin America” minor at The Hague University of Applied Sciences.
The aim of the Embassy was to promote the country in a didactic way, providing practical advice especially to the group of students who will be traveling to Colombia and participate in the exchange program at the School of Higher Administrative Studies (CESA) in Bogota. Cultural, socio-economic, commercial balance and bilateral relation between the Netherlands and Colombia were presented during the lecture in order to complement the acquired knowledge in the minor.
After the lecture, the Embassy hosted a brief reception with Colombian empanadas and arepas, as well as promotional material of the country. The purpose was to offer an experience in Colombian cuisine prior to their trip.
