Today, Costa Rica provides a mature environment for complex business processes and stands as the #1 Exporter of high value added services in Latin America, surpassing Chile, Brazil, Argentina and Peru. It provides interesting opportunities for ICT data centers. Costa Rica currently has 7 data centers, which serve local and regional demand. Local demand for Data Center Services (cloud, storage, etc.) in Costa Rica comes primarily from the government sector, the financial sector, and the telecommunications companies. There is also a growing private market linked to multinational service companies located in free-zones such as HP, IBM, Emerson, Procter & Gamble and Amazon. Increasing energy costs make utility price negotiation, energy-efficient infrastructure and sustainable energy sources key determinants in where to locate data centers. Dutch companies in this shared services industry can offer their knowledge, technology and innovation on ICT Data Centers with a special focus on energy-efficiency. For further information and support to access the market, you can contact the Dutch Embassy in Costa Rica.
