Monday, February 10, 2025– The World Boxing Organization (WBO) continues to advance its mission of strengthening boxing on a global scale, and today we are pleased to announce a strategic alliance with the Bogotá Chamber of Commerce (CCB), an institution committed to the development of sports and the creation of new opportunities in Colombia.

WBO President, Gustavo Olivieri, Esq., and CCB President, Dr. Ovidio Claros Polanco, have sealed a groundbreaking agreement that will bring the 2025 World Boxing Convention to Bogotá. This alliance will not only open new doors for boxing in the region but will also mark the beginning of a key collaboration with the business sector to enhance the sport and support its athletes.

WBO President, Gustavo Olivieri, Esq., highlighted: “This is the beginning of partnerships with the private sector and public entities, which will lead to a significant advancement in achieving the organization’s mission-driven objectives.”

Dr. Ovidio Claros Polanco, President of the Bogotá Chamber of Commerce, praised the WBO’s efforts in promoting boxing worldwide:

“The World Boxing Organization has been a fundamental pillar in the promotion and growth of boxing across the globe, fostering young talent and providing them with opportunities to shine in the ring. For the Bogotá Chamber of Commerce, Bogotá, and Colombia, hosting this convention is not only an honor but also a platform to showcase our capability as a host for major sporting events. With the leadership and the new vision of Gustavo Olivieri, Esq., and the joint efforts of public entities and the private sector, we are ready to write a new chapter in the history of boxing.”
