Mafiz comes to an end with the WIP and MAFF awards gala

Paraguay will be the guest of honor in 2024

The Balneario de los Baños del Carmen was the venue chosen for MAFIZ’s last event, which brought together in an informal atmosphere the WIP and MAFF teams, together with the participants of Talent and Hack. Following the words of welcome by Annabelle Aramburu, General Coordinator of MAFIZ, the gala began, presented by the journalist Romina Zece, and the winners of the Malaga WIP and MAFF Awards were announced.

In the course of the gala, it was announced that Paraguay was the country that had been selected to replace Peru as next year’s guest of honour.
