AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Tourism & Infrastructure: Costa Rica is leaning hard on two growth engines—tourism and transport upgrades—with ICT reporting 1,390,842 air arrivals from January to May 2026 (+9.4% year over year) and a major push to expand capacity for visitors. Road Connectivity: The Comptroller General approved the central section of Route 35 to San Carlos, clearing a key legal hurdle so the government can move ahead with CHEC on nearly 30 km of four-lane highway work (Sifón de San Ramón to La Abundancia). Telecom Experience: Kölbi says it’s again topping user experience rankings, citing stable coverage and efficiency improvements that reduce battery drain. Mobility Tech: Uber is piloting a plan to let traditional taxi drivers serve airport rides via the app, while MOPT warns the service is still unregulated. Ocean & Food Security: A global research effort is assessing how ocean acidification affects seafood, including locally important Costa Rican species. Local Science: In northern Costa Rica, researchers documented “vulture bees” that feed on decaying animal tissue, adding new detail to stingless bee diets. Business Tech Expansion: AVI-SPL expanded its Costa Rica operations to support workplace transformation with more local resources.
