discover what lies ahead!

We ended the year with sessions to empower entrepreneurs and youngsters interested in entrepreneurship on topics of wealth, investing, while receiving and facilitating an incoming mission from Medellin, Colombia through our sister organization the Chamber of Commerce of Medellin and Holland

House Colombia. We facilitated a dynamic webinar introducing the upcoming mission to Panama, where entrepreneurs from the Dutch Caribbean are invited to explore new markets and opportunities in February 2025. For those considering market expansion, this mission could be

your next big step toward growth.

Through strategic collaborations with international and regional organizations, we’re actively identifying opportunities that can benefit Curaçao’s economy and its entrepreneurial community. Looking ahead, we’re excited to capture your interest for a mission to Colombia in the second quarter of 2025. We celebrate ongoing efforts to strengthen direct airlift connections and embrace sustainable initiatives that align with our vision of positioning Curaçao as a vibrant player in the

global economy.

With a thriving tourism sector and forward-thinking projects, the year ahead promises abundant opportunities for innovation and success. Our commitment to empowering entrepreneurs remains steadfast, and we’re here to provide the insights and resources you need to achieve your 2025 goals. Remember, success in the coming year will be defined by your ability to take bold action,

adapt to challenges, and seize opportunities with determination and discipline.

Let 2025 be the year where your ambitions take flight and your vision for growth becomes a reality.
