Port Showdown: Costa Rica’s Comptroller General (CGR) has accepted ICTSI’s appeal over its exclusion from the Puerto Caldera container terminal tender, opening a five-day hearing after ICTSI alleged “irregularities” and a changed debt-to-equity calculation that pushed it from compliant to non-compliant. Presidential Faith: New President Laura Fernández kicked off her term with a Mass, “entrusting” the government to God before the nation’s patroness, Our Lady of the Angels. Tech at Work: Dos Pinos dairy cooperative is rolling out AI “inspectors” to catch label and regulatory discrepancies before packaging leaves design teams. Transport Upgrade: Incofer is modernizing rail service with a Portuguese tech donation that brings real-time train tracking and more accurate arrival estimates. Trade & Money Watch: Costa Rica’s CPTPP accession moves forward via the UK, while economists warn the colón’s recent strength may not last. Crime & Safety: A road-rage shooting in Cartago left a man dead after an argument tied to a crash.
