In the Colombian Caribbean, regional development efforts are focusing on infrastructure and tourism. The national Conpes 4205 investment plan, which allocates 6.54 trillion pesos for airport upgrades through 2035, has faced criticism from Atlántico Governor Eduardo Verano for omitting the Ernesto Cortissoz Airport in Barranquilla from its priority list. Verano has called on President-elect Abelardo De la Espriella to include the facility to maintain regional connectivity. Simultaneously, expansion plans for the Simón Bolívar International Airport in Santa Marta are being reviewed by regional officials and CAF representatives to address rising passenger demand. This focus on infrastructure coincides with major industry events, including the 30th ANATO National Congress of Travel and Tourism Agencies in Barranquilla and upcoming Barranquilla, which is currently being held to discuss the impact of technology on the industry. Upcoming sports tourism congresses in Santa Marta, both aimed at driving Marta are also expected to drive economic development in the region.
