Opportunities in Panama
Due to its central location, excellent maritime and airline connections and favourable business climate, Panama is frequently referred to as the ‘Hub of the Americas’. The high-income & high growth country in Central-America is a regional trade, logistics and financial center that has attracted many Dutch businesses (NL is currently the No. 3 investor in Panama). Thanks to the excellent connectivity and the business climate for technology companies Panama is well on its way to becoming a Digital Hub. It is on the crossroads of 7+1 submarine fiber optic cables (the Google Curie cable is under construction) providing reliability of data and voice transmissions and the highest fixed internet speed in Latin-America. Together with beautiful technology parks and fiscal, migration and labour incentives for tech companies, it is the ideal place to do business for Dutch companies in digital technologies!
