00:00As we were reporting, the second edition of the International Telecommunications Fair
00:03continues bringing together entrepreneurs, big and small brands and technology enthusiasts.
00:08With more details on the event, our correspondent Lais Quezada.
00:11Yeah, thanks for the time and the contact here with you and our audience in from the
00:17south and for Telesur English.
00:19Currently, FITELVEN 2024 continues and the activities are rolling out in this last day
00:25of activities and events.
00:27As we were reporting, this is the last day, but this is a free entrance day.
00:32So everyone in the public can come here with their families just for free and enjoy these
00:37lights and this spectacle of music and technology that is FITELVEN 2024.
00:43We were talking to the organizer, the main organizer of the event, Carlos Silva, and
00:47he was telling us that as of yesterday, 18,000 people were, you know, assisting and attending
00:55this fair.
00:56So they were coming in here.
00:58Those are figures that mark a new record in assistance for this kind of events here in
01:03Caracas, Venezuela.
01:04As I was saying also, we were talking to him and he told me that yesterday, main companies
01:10in Venezuela, as MobileNet, as also Digicel, Cantebé and others were doing alliances because
01:17one of the main purposes of this fair is to showcase what Venezuela can do in terms of
01:22telecommunications so they can do this kind of nexus, this kind of links and alliances
01:29towards finding independence in telecommunications.
01:33Let's recall Venezuela is under attack in many of these sectors and in this France,
01:38and it is paramount and needed to find independence and sovereignty in terms of technology and
01:45telecommunications.
01:46One of the main objectives is to do software and hardware produced here in Venezuela.
01:52I want to tell you also that Carlos Silva, the main organizer of the event, was telling
01:56us that yesterday other agreements were signed with Iran, one of the South cooperation ways
02:04here in Venezuela, and also because they were telling us that they have the same objective,
02:09the same goal of finding independence in technology and sovereignty also.
02:14I want to say you that here today they had the Fusion Tournament, which is one way to
02:21showcase the abilities and the skills in this new sector that is prospering and that is
02:26enhancing and growing for the next three years, and that's to say the optic fiber cable and
02:32the installations, those are services that will grow in Venezuela because of the enhancement
02:37of new technologies as the 5G connectivity.
02:40Also I wanted to tell you that this is one way to find cooperation and fraternal competence
02:48or competitions between the private sector and the public sector because one of the seven
02:54transformations proposed by President Nicolás Maduro Moros is to find alliances and to find
03:00gains in the cooperation between both sectors.
03:03He was saying that no one can do it alone, so Venezuela is under the premise of cooperation
03:09rather than unfaithful competition.
03:12So far that's the information from the Poliedro of Caracas.
03:16As I was saying, over 18,000 people have been touring the fair, but this is not over yet.
03:22This is going to move on and continue until late in the afternoon or maybe in the early
03:27hours of the night of today, September 21st.
03:31So this is the information, now I'm giving the signal back to you.
