Thales, a global leader in advance technologies, is proud to celebrate 40 years of presence in Central America and the Caribbean. Since its arrival in the region, Thales has been contributing to the development of key sectors such as Defence, Aerospace, Cyber & Digital from 1985 until today, and continues to support all clients, such as government entities, private institutions and cities.
Thales presence in Central America and the Caribbean has been fundamental and has evolved significantly over the years, establishing the Group as a key player in various sectors. Among the most notable projects, Thales has been a long-term partner to COCESNA (Central American Corporation for Air Navigation Services) for over 25 years, playing a crucial role through the provision of advanced technologies and innovative solutions for air traffic management.
Thales collaboration with COCESNA reflects a long-term partnership based on trust and technical excellence, aimed at improving the safety and efficiency of aviation in the Central American region. In 2024, Thales secured a significant contract that reflects the trust and support placed in the company by this client, aimed at enhancing critical aviation systems in six Central American countries: Belize, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Honduras, El Salvador, and Nicaragua.
In Panama, for over 10 years, Thales has been the main supplier to the Civil Aviation Authority, providing both air traffic control centers and essential navigation systems for the safe and efficient operation of flights. Additionally, Thales has implemented various technology systems for Copa Airlines, including advanced solutions onboard its fleet of aircraft and for the protection and secure management of its data.
In the Dominican Republic, Thales maintains a continuing partnership with the Dominican Institute of Civil Aviation, being the main supplier of the control tower and air navigation systems for Las Am ricas, Punta Cana, Puerto Plata, and Cibao airports to ensure that each flight is a safe experience.
Thales is also a strategic partner of the Government of Jamaica, providing advanced solutions and technologies for national security, supporting the Armed Forces in their mission to strengthen national defense with the Bushmaster armored vehicle fleet and the coastal surveillance system for the safety and management of maritime areas. Thales also supports the Jamaica Civil Aviation Authority with radar systems and control centers for efficient surveillance and management of its airspace. In the country, Thales also developed the National Identification System, improving public services and security through the precise identification of each citizen, enhancing the countrys security and efficiency.
Thales is a leader in Cyber and Digital in the region and a strategic partner of leading banks and financial institutions, ensuring the security of their banking transactions by providing robust solutions that protect both information and financial operations, contributing to strengthening trust in the financial ecosystem.
Throughout this journey, Thales has forged alliances with governments, businesses, and organizations, creating a collaborative ecosystem that enhances technological and business development. It has adapted to local markets and the unique needs and challenges of the region, offering solutions that address every requirement.
We are excited to celebrate this important milestone in our journey in Central America and the Caribbean. This achievement reinforces Thales strong commitment to supporting the region in its crucial moments. We drive its technological transformation and strengthen its future with advanced security solutions, ranging from coastal surveillance and border security systems to urban protection, cybersecurity, critical infrastructure, and specialized solutions for airports and airlines said Ariane Andreani, Country Director of Thales for Central America and the Caribbean.
Our commitment to local presence, innovation, and continuous improvement has been key to successfully serving our clients and partners. We thank them for their support over the years and are committed to continuing to build together in the years to come she added.
