Movistar Arena Has Been Recognized as a World-Class Venue for 2026

On June 25, 2026, in Bogotá, D.C., Movistar Arena received the World-Class Team award, a recognition presented by La Nota Económica that honors human resources departments and organizations demonstrating excellence in organizational culture, employee well-being, and innovation in Colombia. The award was presented to Movistar Arena (Colombiana de Escenarios), the company that operates the venue, recognizing its team for building a culture of excellence, teamwork, and a strong results-oriented mindset. With this distinction, the venue further strengthens its position not only as Colombia’s leading entertainment venue, but also as a benchmark for talent management.

What is the World-Class Team Award?

The World-Class Team award is one of the most prestigious recognitions presented by La Nota Económica in Colombia. It honors human resources teams and organizations that successfully integrate organizational culture, employee well-being, and technological innovation into the way they manage talent.

What does this award evaluate?

The judging panel evaluates three main areas:

• Employee well-being: organizations are recognized for creating comprehensive employee benefits programs and helping prevent financial stress among their workforce.
• Technology management: recognition is given to teams that successfully integrate artificial intelligence with human judgment while anticipating the challenges of talent shortages in the labor market.
• Organizational impact: the award highlights how a people-centered culture translates into greater competitiveness and operational efficiency. In the 2026 edition, companies such as Outsourcing S.A.S. were also recognized for this achievement, reinforcing the importance of these criteria in the Colombian market.

Movistar Arena Among the 2026 World-Class Teams

Movistar Arena (Colombiana de Escenarios) is featured in the 2026 edition of the publication “World-Class Teams” by La Nota Económica, which showcases organizations recognized for excellence in talent management across Colombia. According to the publication, the venue’s team consists of between 100 and 300 employees.

The Movistar Arena team describes its organizational culture as one of the key reasons behind this recognition. As stated by the team in La Nota Económica’s publication:

“At Movistar Arena, every employee has the opportunity to grow, contribute, and be part of extraordinary experiences.”

The company believes that culture is not imposed from the top down, but built every day through the decisions and experiences of its people. This approach strengthens employee support from onboarding through professional development while making continuous learning a core part of the organization’s way of working.

Another Recognition for Colombia’s Leading Venue

This award adds to the venue’s recent international recognitions, including the top ranking awarded by Pollstar in the 10,000 to 15,000 capacity arena category and Billboard’s recognition of Movistar Arena as South America’s number one venue in its category (link here to the previously published Pollstar/Billboard article). With the 2026 World-Class Team award, Movistar Arena confirms that its leadership is reflected not only in the quality of its events, but also in the strength of its people.
