The 15-year concession agreement is expected to be signed before the end of 2026.
This new concession will allow GL events to leverage its international expertise and global commercial network to further develop the Lima Convention Center, strengthen its position in the Latin American and international MICE markets, and enhance Lima’s appeal as a destination for major congresses and business events.
Olivier Ginon, Chairman-CEO of GL events Group, commented:
"This new concession is another important milestone in the disciplined execution of our growth strategy and demonstrates our long-term commitment to Peru. We will leverage the strength of our international network, our commercial expertise and our operational know-how to further develop the Lima Convention Center and enhance its international reach.
