51.000 km² for around 5 million people, Costa Rica is one of the most modern countries in Central America. The central government offers tax exemptions to those willing to invest in the country. This strategy works well, as it is now the number one destination in the region in terms of direct foreign investment and several global high tech corporations have already started developing in the area and exporting goods. Amongst them are chip manufacturer Intel, Pharmaceutical company GSK, consumer product company P&G. Costa Rica will also be a important market for Planitium’s activities.
