Added for You - Costa Rica - New Hi-Tech Free Zone
Having worked for several prominent retail organizations I have seen the impact of both positive and negative cultures on the workforce, the customers and, of course, the success of the business. Have no doubt whatsoever, the head of the organization dictates, through words and actions, what the culture will be. I want to tell you about the incredible culture created by a CEO, and a ge

Most employers will weigh out if hiring a virtual assistant is actually worth the time and effort that it actually takes to find the right one that can accomplish what they need done. The other more obvious things in a virtual assistants favor are that a employer never has to come face to face with them, never has to pay for any of the office equipment used by the virtual assistant, a
Zeta Group's new free zone, an expansion of its Cartago free zone, sits alongside garment manufacturers such as Hanes and Levi Strauss. The new free zone will be called Techno Park, and it seeks to attract call centers, technical support centers, and other computer and communications businesses that focus on high-tech service, said Zeta Group VP Cesar Zingone;
Techno Park has already attracted US$4 million in investment. Zeta expects the 15-hectare plot to host 25 companies within its total floor space of 100,000 square meters. It is expected to generate 5,000 jobs in the short term, and Zingone said the free zone could employ 8,000 to 9,000 workers within five years, depending on the performance of the economy and the result of September's referendum on the Central American Free Trade Agreement with the US (CAFTA);
Zeta Group's free zones in Cartago, Alajuela and Heredia employ 14,000 workers. In May, FZBP announced plans for another free zone, in San Jos? between Calle Blancos de Coicoechea and Barrio Tourn?n. The East Free Zone will be located in the old Durman Esquivel factory, which FZBP is remodeling. TeleTech ? an all-purpose office outsourcing company ? is set to start operations there in 30 days, while TechData ? a Fortune 500 information technology company ? will begin work in August with 25 employees;
According to the Foreign Trade Promotion Office (PROCOMER), in 2006 free zones accounted for US$4.31 billion in product exports, 52.6% of all Costa Rica's exports. That was up almost 17% from 2005. Most of the growth was from tech products related to Intel. Textile and leather manufacturing was down, and many other manufacturing sectors operating from free zones grew by less that 10%. The export of business and information services from free zones was up 21.46% in 2006, to US$532 million from US$438 million, according to the Central Bank.

Branding, branding, branding. About every fifth newsletter or article I see online or in business journals has some spin on branding. How important it is. How it is a piece of intellectual property that must be leveraged and protected. How it must be invested in--this assertion (surprise) is from branding consultants who invite you to hire them to "do" you. I am so tired of hearing abo

Costa Rica obtained an extension of the compliance deadline until 2010, and legislators are preparing to announce a law that will address the WTO's concerns, said Foreign Trade Minister Marco Vinicio Ru?z.
