Costa Rica: Hiring, Funding And Leadership Signals

Every update we hold that a source placed in Costa Rica: 29 updates from 6 sources, across 27 employers. Each one links to the filing or report that makes the claim. These are counts of documents we have read, so they measure what we have found and can cite, not everything that happened. They also include the routine officer filings the tracker sets aside by default, so its figure for this place is lower than the one above.

Covering 17 Jan 2026 to 4 Sep 2026

29 updates tracked
27 employers
6 sources
$31.2M disclosed funding

$31,200,000 disclosed across 2 funding updates. All 2 funding updates state a US dollar amount. We leave out amounts in other currencies rather than convert them at a rate nobody published. We also leave out money that moved for another reason: a sale price, a fund close, a company spending rather than raising, government funding, a pledge.

Employers We Hold The Most On

Ranked by how many updates we hold, then by how many independent sources are behind them. That is a measure of our own coverage rather than of an employer's size. Each name links to everything we hold for that employer.
