00:14Yes, thanks for the time and the contact hearing from the South and Telesur English,
00:18and of course the opportunity to tell to our audience what is going on here
00:22in FITELVEN 2024, which is the second edition of this fair.
00:26And this is one of the expositions of technology and telecommunications here in Caracas,
00:32and this is the technological event in Venezuela.
00:35Big brands and small entrepreneurs are coming in here to showcase their services,
00:40to offer their technical services and technical platforms also to the public in general.
00:47Yesterday was the first occasion with closed doors, only for the installations of the stands,
00:52but today here they opened the doors for the public in general, and they have master classes.
00:58That's to say, they have these talks, these dialogues with the public regarding
01:04artificial intelligence, also the services of optic fiber and internet connectivity.
01:11And in this case, they were talking about how the artificial intelligence is one way
01:16to enhance marketing and marketing options in social media.
01:21They were also saying that internet is one option, but artificial intelligence is the future of marketing,
01:27as that way and that tool can, you know, identify the needs of the several publics
01:33and sectors of the publics and the target audience, and transform the advertisement
01:39and transform the services in order to satisfy those needs.
01:44Also, today there was a demonstration of skills in a technical sector.
01:49That's to say, the technicians of different brands, they had a competition and they showcased
01:55their abilities and their skills in repairing the internet and in restoring services.
02:02Also, there are many, many stands and today they had brought up their services, as I was saying.
02:09And also, we were talking to one of the main organizers of the event, Carlos Silva,
02:14and he told us that after the first experience, the first edition of 2023 of Fidel Ben,
02:20they had many experiences and that the fair grew up, because last year there were 103 exponents
02:29on brands and today they have 118 enterprises and they have more exponents, so they have 200
02:38enterprises here and big brands that came to showcase in Venezuela what they can do in terms
02:43of technology. Also, they made more friendly towards families and kids the fair, because
02:50they made more open spaces for people circulating here and they opened doors for everyone to come in
02:57and see what is going on in technology. And as we were reporting before, the 5G connection and more
03:04speed and connectivity in terms of internet is one of the main goals of this fair and to find
03:10trade and cooperation ways between the public sector and the private entrepreneurs and the
03:17private enterprises. Also, that's one of the main ways they have to continue in the economy,
03:23to continue in the development of options in technology and to grow up. Also, they had a
03:28gaming platform, a gaming sector, which is so attractive for the youngsters that came in here,
03:36not only to see the future of technology in trade and commerce terms, but also to see what
03:42they are interested in, which is gaming and which is virtual reality and artificial
03:50intelligence. So, those are the main attractives. This is the first official day and the fair will
