Costa Rica has been dubbed “the Silicon Valley of Latin America” due to its business friendly approach to this growing global economy.  As large multinational companies such as Intel, Hewlett Packard, Microsoft, Acer, Amazon.com and Abbot Laboratories take advantage of Costa Rica’s pro-U.S. tax laws, financial security, highly educated workforce, modern infrastructure and technology including fiber optic high speed internet, T1’s, E1’s, satellite backup for phones and internet etc. it’s own economy is now shifting.

Once very dependent on its tourism and agriculture as its leading GNP it is now one of the leading Latin American countries for Offshore Outsourcing in IT development and manufacturing, high-tech telecommunication services for call centers and customer service centers.  Costa Rica has one of the highest literacy rates in the world next to the US and Canada and offers foreign companies the same quality of employee in Costa Rica that they could find in their own country.

IT programmers, developers, graphic designers, web page designers, fluent in English and Spanish and submerged in the US culture.  The US has an incredibly large presence and influence in Costa Rica and contributes significantly to the economic stimulus so much so that the Costa Rican Government, ministries and financial institutes continue to improve the ease in which foreigners can do business in Costa Rica.

What companies in the US are finding is the manufacturing plants for IT production are financially more feasible than production in the states and because of the level of education, experience, infrastructure and technology that the quality of production meets the same standard of excellence as you would find in the US, if not better.
