In the words of our leaders

“The challenges of Ciudad del Saber are enormous, but the motivation and enthusiasm that our predecessors bequeathed to us is also enormous, and that, throughout these 25 years, we have managed to transmit to a new generation, aware of its mission to be an innovative community, open to all, and a laboratory of experimentation for the transformations we want to see in Panama and the world.”

Jorge Arosemena Román

Executive Chairman, Ciudad del Saber Foundation

“Unlike the vast majority of science and technology parks and innovation zones in other countries, Ciudad del Saber included from the beginning many of the elements of a true community, with housing, educational centers, commercial services, recreational and sports areas open to the public, as well as a varied program of knowledge dissemination, cultural and community activities.
