It is impossible not to mention, as key players of the Polla Chilena management, its more than 2 thousand agents who integrate the company’s Official Agent Network, which through history has been the visible face of this institution.The great challenge of those who are part of the Polla Chilena structure is to consolidate the company as an excellence model, both at public and private levels, through its business and institutional management, as well as its charitable character. Similarly, Polla Chilena de Beneficencia continues and will continue working on its modernization and leadership projects in the entertainment industry of gaming.
