Although representatives of the restaurant located in Medellín confirmed that the betting house called 1win had canceled the event that same morning, Coljuegos' intervention was crucial to guarantee compliance with the law and prevent future attempts at illegal operations in the country.
The purpose of the event was to educate attendees about affiliate marketing strategies, traffic arbitrage and other forms of monetization in order to boost the participation of the betting public on the platform.
Bookmaker 1win is a gaming platform for bettors from the Russian Federation, Commonwealth of Independent States countries and near abroad countries.
