La Compañia

Three eras of Panama's history come to life at Hotel La Compañía, where opulent modern design revitalizes a landmark location. Each of our three wings restores a piece of the historic town (Casco Antiguo) to the height of contemporary luxury. Choose a beautifully curated room in the French Colonial wing, built by Jesuit priests in 1739; the Spanish Colonial wing, dating back to 1688; or the Beaux-Arts rooms in the American wing, which dates back to 1904. Hotel La Compañía is on the site where La Compañía de Jesús (Company of Jesus) settled after the destruction of the original Panama City back in 1671. The Jesuit Convent was constructed after the foundation of the new Panama City in 1673, the heart and soul of Casco Antiguo. World-class dining experiences await at boutique Hotel La Compañía, where you'll find five mouthwatering in-house restaurants and two lively bars.

A New Perspective on Sponsorship

The World FZO World Congress 2026 is not designed as a traditional conference. It is a working platform where the next generation of Free Zone models, industrial strategies, and cross-border collaborations are actively shaped.

Sponsorship is therefore an invitation to co-create outcomes, not simply support an event.

As global industries face fragmentation, technological disruption, and sustainability pressures, the Congress serves as a neutral global space where governments, zones, and the private sector collectively test ideas, align priorities, and translate dialogue into action. Sponsors contribute to this process, helping move the conversation from policy to implementation.

By sponsoring the Congress, organizations take part in:

  • Shaping real-world frameworksthat influence how Free Zones evolve as engines of industrial growth and innovation.
  • Contributing expertise, insight, and leadershipto discussions that inform future regulations, investment models, and development strategies.
  • Leaving a tangible legacy, through ideas, partnerships, and initiatives that extend beyond the three days of the Congress.

To support this collaborative approach, the Congress offers a range of sponsorship categories and exhibitor opportunities, allowing organizations to engage at different strategic levels.

World Congress 2026 is about building shared answers to shared challenges, how industries will locate, operate, decarbonize, digitise, and scale in the years ahead. Sponsors are not positioned on the sidelines but embedded in the process of defining these answers.
