During the III Gala, the president of Mahos and the Andalusian Hospitality Federation, Javier Frutos, highlighted the role of business organisations, "which have a great commitment to the development and management of the city model, the province and autonomous community. He has stressed the value that he is giving to "tourism promotion and planning, which he considers fundamental to becoming more and more a destination of global quality".
Frutos has stated that Mahos is at the City of Malaga Tourism Forum and at the Costa del Sol Tourism Forum; in the executive committee of the Malaga Chamber of Commerce; in the Confederation of Entrepreneurs of Malaga; in the Confederation of Entrepreneurs of Andalusia; and also in the board of directors of the Andalusian Hospitality Federation and in the Spanish Hospitality Business Confederation. “We negotiate with the institutions, we cooperate in the design of strategic and investment plans, we attend national and international tourism fairs. Our commitment is general, obviously defending the interests of the hotel industry, but with a global conception of the territory”, he insisted.

Along with this, other important personalities, such as the case of the president of the Diputación de Málaga, Francisco Salado; the General Secretary of Tourism of the Junta de Andalucía, Manuel Muñoz; and the president of the Spanish Hospitality Business Confederation, José Luis Yzuel.
