=== Pro and cons about the proposed location ===
 
==== Pros ====
 
Montevideo has a strategic location as central point of MERCOSUR, with connections and direct scheduled flights (national and international) to major Latinamerican cities (Panamá, São Paulo, Buenos Aires, Rio do Janeiro, Santiago de Chile, among others).
Besides the international airport has a bus terminal station, and important highways and roads to all points inside the city.
 
*It has also a rich and long history with many points to visit, like The Samotracia's Victory, Salvo Palace, Blanes Museum and many others.
*Many natural places and beautiful parks.
*Rich and varied cultural places and activities like artisans fairs, universities and more.
*A rich and varied cuisine with many local dishes and drinks, like Chivito, Chajá Dessert, Ravioli alla Carusso and Grappamiel; but also with many good restaurants offering new cuisine or international dishes like French, Italian, Armenian and others.
*Low costs in organisation and transport, while keeping the high quality.
*Nearer for southern countries and contributors.
*Many transport lines and ways.  It's accessible by bus, ferry and charter. From certain points, it's possible to use train as well.
 
==== Cons ====
*Aeroplane tickets to Montevideo aren't outstanding, but aeroplane tickets from Montevideo are a bit expensive. On the other hand, there's many other ways to get Montevideo (like bus and ferry) from the surrounding countries so it shouldn't be a great impediment.
 
== Proposed venues ==
 
=== Option 1: Sinergia Coworking ===

Pro and cons about the proposed location

Pros

Montevideo has a strategic location as central point of MERCOSUR, with connections and direct scheduled flights (national and international) to major Latinamerican cities (Panamá, São Paulo, Buenos Aires, Rio do Janeiro, Santiago de Chile, among others). Besides the international airport has a bus terminal station, and important highways and roads to all points inside the city.

  • It has also a rich and long history with many points to visit, like The Samotracia's Victory, Salvo Palace, Blanes Museum and many others.
  • Many natural places and beautiful parks.
  • Rich and varied cultural places and activities like artisans fairs, universities and more.
  • A rich and varied cuisine with many local dishes and drinks, like Chivito, Chajá Dessert, Ravioli alla Carusso and Grappamiel; but also with many good restaurants offering new cuisine or international dishes like French, Italian, Armenian and others.
  • Low costs in organisation and transport, while keeping the high quality.
  • Nearer for southern countries and contributors.
  • Many transport lines and ways. It's accessible by bus, ferry and charter. From certain points, it's possible to use train as well.

Cons

  • Aeroplane tickets to Montevideo aren't outstanding, but aeroplane tickets from Montevideo are a bit expensive. On the other hand, there's many other ways to get Montevideo (like bus and ferry) from the surrounding countries so it shouldn't be a great impediment.

Option 2: Espacio Serratosa

It is located in the old cask of the city (Ciudad Vieja) which is, at the same time, historically interesting, beautiful and centric. Its pros are spacious illuminated rooms, nice ambiance, good internet connection. Its cons are: a catering not as adequate to this kind of events as Sinergia and a higher cost.
