Cuba offers one of those once in a generation opportunities for Americans to reestablish contacts that were severed decades ago. Like most other countries in Latin America, the business success must take into account a culture based upon relationships and an understanding of how business is transacted in this environment.
Under current United States law, most businesses are prohibited from engaging in transactions at this time, but there are several exceptions. Medical, Agricultural and several art based businesses may qualify to begin to tap the Cuban market.

The family of businesses born from Tico Travel in 1993 cover many different fields. Along with creating the largest wholesale airfare companies to Costa Rica, sending up to 25,000 passengers a year to Costa Rica, one of the co-owners/founder of Tico Travel has a law degree, along with seventeen years of business experience and a fluent level of Spanish.

Over the years, the Tico partners have initiated several of their own businesses in both Costa Rica and Nicaragua including CentralAmerica.com back in the infancy of the Internet (1995), a successful yacht and fishing charter business, developed a successful boutique hotel, luxury home developments for private ownership and rentals, a one of a kind 70 acre prestigious residential development (Orchid-Point-Estates.com), as well as one of the largest and most popular sports cafés in Costa Rica.
