Four years ago, when Michael Bloomberg opened the first Bloomberg New Economy Gateway conference outside of Asia here in Panama City, he didn’t come for the beaches or the scenery.

He came because Panama sits at the center of it all.

• A land bridge between continents.

• A water bridge between oceans.

• A digital bridge in the global network.

With the Panama Canal, one of the world’s largest Free Trade Zones, major internet infrastructure, and a fast-growing air hub, Panama has quietly become one of the most strategically important countries in the Western Hemisphere—and today, it leads Latin America in per-capita GDP.

But Panama is more than economics.

• Panama is stable. Democratic. Welcoming.

• A place where modern city life meets mountain air and coastal living.

• A country where world-class healthcare, vibrant culture, and a tropical climate come together in one place.

• And yes—the coffee is exceptional. In 2025, Panama set global records, with top varieties selling for over $30,000 per kilo. Panama is small. But it lives large.

People come here for opportunity.

They stay for quality of life.

And in 2026, something unusual has happened:

Panama has become a buyer’s market.
