“Until recently, LatAm investors perceived Orlando as a destination to visit the theme parks and have fun,” said Riviera Point President and CEO Rodrigo Azpurua. “Investors are beginning to see this city as a viable destination for their capital, in part, thanks to the tremendous amount of public and private investment being poured into the region to accommodate growth. LatAm investors want to be part of the city’s expansion.
