The Tel Aviv, Israel firm SOSA, a business experts firm, will offer business workshops in Costa Rica.


According to the company, they have an agreement with the Costa Rica Export Promotion Agency (Procomer) and the Costa Rica Learning Institute (INA) to support Costa Rican companies in developing advanced manufacturing solutions for their international expansion goals while receiving guidance from industry experts.


The training will be focused on growth in the industry 4.0 market, they said.


"In an environment where industry 4.0 has a market size of $65 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $218 billion by 2027, the first Procomer-SOSA collaboration is geared to drive Costa Rican industry 4.0 companies into the U.S.'s commercial environment," the firm said in its statement. 


During the 16-week training, seven Costa Rican companies from various industrial sectors such as electronics, metal mechanics, automation, and others, will participate in a series of business-oriented workshops and mentor sessions.  


"Our goal at SOSA is to expose industry 4.0 innovative technologies to manufacturers and a wide variety of corporations ready to take that next step to achieve growth and transformation," Uzi Scheffer, CEO at SOSA said.


According to Procomer, Costa Rica is home to a total of 450 companies offering information and communications technology products and services (ICT), such as digital transformation, process automation, and technology integration, among others. Of those 450 companies, 56 (12%) represent the sub-sector of the ICT industry, specializing in Industry 4.0 technologies, including cybersecurity, IoT, blockchain, and others. 


SOSA works with teams and business units in corporations such as LG, HP, Schneider Electric, RBC, and Swiss Re. They also have been working with governments such as Brazil, Australia, Canada and Taiwan.


Those interested in participating in the workshops should call Procomer line 2505-4700.
