AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

AI at Work: Executive assistants at major firms are getting cut as AI takes over scheduling, expenses, and travel—PwC alone reportedly laid off about 600 support roles. Costa Rica’s Climate Finance: Costa Rica is expanding its Payment for Ecosystem Services beyond forests to mangroves, coral reefs, and ocean conservation, building on a program that has protected 1.3M hectares since the 1990s. Renewables Meets AI Demand: With 98.6% renewable electricity in 2025, Costa Rica is pitching itself to AI data centers—but the new pressure is whether the grid and watersheds can handle the growth. Energy Tech Upgrade: JASEC (Cartago) is modernizing electricity billing with Congero’s Embrix platform, aiming to unify prepaid and postpaid in an AI-ready cloud system. Trade Tension: Costa Rica is still waiting on Washington tariff talks tied to DR-CAFTA, keeping exporters and investment plans in limbo. Tourism Connectivity: Lufthansa will add flights between Frankfurt and San José for the 2026-27 season.

Note: AI summary from news headlines; neutral sources weighted more to help reduce bias in the result.
