The geography of the Dominican Republic gives it a legitimate claim to cultural and historical centrality in the region. Eight hundred miles to the south-east of Florida, and just four hundred miles from the South American mainland, sharing a timezone with New York, the Dominican Republic sits at the fulcrum of north and south, welcoming both, but unduly influenced by neither.
As a focus for commercial attention past and present, the Dominican Republic is unrivalled in the region. With a long tradition of discrete hospitality, it provides the ideal conditions for the gathering of business interests and the exchange of goods and ideas.
The Centre is designed in harmony with the Dominican Republic's place in the world, and will serve to deepen its role at the heart of the Americas. On a foundation of tradition, we are able to build innovatively and with the confidence that our efforts will prove to be of lasting benefit to our country and region by providing unrivalled access to the financial heartbeat of the Americas. |
