Panama: The New Business Capital of the Americas
Summary: In 2007 Panama’s legislature passed a bill giving attractive incentives to international corporations to establish their headquarters in Panama. In a short time, such prestigious companies as Hewitt Packard, General Electric, Proctor and Gamble, and Caterpillar have signed up to establish Panama as the Latin American headquarters. This move is also caused in part by the difficulties Latin Americans now have in getting visas to travel to the USA. Panama is destined to become the business capital of the Americas.
New Sponsors
Portones Del Mar Yacht Club & Resort: An upscale marina resort community on 1.5 miles of beach on Chame Bay on the Pacific Coast. This is an important project because Panama is out of the hurricane belt and an ideal place for yacht marinas. To find a feasible marina location near the conveniences of Panama City, Portones funded a year-long study of tides, currents and winds. The Chame project will include a state-of-the-art marina, yacht club and beach club and a selection of condos, villas and homes. www.portonesdelmar.com
The Haven Spa at Valle Escondido Resort and the Panamonte Hotel: This spa specializes in alternative treatment and massages. The Haven is a most welcome addition to our touism offerings because baby boomers seek alternative health to stay well and get well. Now you can go to Boquete to both have a good time and improve your health. We have heard many anecdotes about people have been cured or helped by them- my own husband got rid of some knee arthritis by following one of their suggestions. www.thehavenspa.com
Palo Alto Boutique Hotel: Called "the finest acomodations in Boquete" by Frommers Guide. We recently stayed at this fine small hotel and found it to be an oasis of good taste and luxurious comfort. We also think their on-premise gourmet restaurant is fabulous. www.paloaltoriverside.com
