We are a multilingual country
Our second language is English, but we know quite a few more. We have proven to be a country with many skills. One of them is the ability to easily learn new languages. We have set a goal to become a fully bilingual country in the next decade through Costa Rica's multilingual program. But for now we have the dominance of English in Latin America.
Work Environment
Stability, innovation and proven international competitiveness create the right climate for success With a proven track record of 120 years of strong democracy, economic and political stability, Costa Rica is unrivaled as the best choice for investment in the region.
Political Stability in Latin America
A solid infrastructure for public services
We have dedicated resources to providing a robust utility infrastructure, from a powerful, redundant and reliable energy supply grid (from renewable energy sources such as geothermal heat, biomass, wind and hydroelectric), to promoting the creation of strategically located industrial parks and business centers.
We are driving a major upgrade to the country's major seaports and airports, roads and telecommunications infrastructure.
Costa Rica: A treasure of biodiversity
Costa Rica covers just 0.03% of the world's surface, but is home to 5% of the Earth's biodiversity. The country has many different types of forests, from dry ones in the South Pacific to the famous Monteverde rainforests, making it a breathing laboratory.
