By San José, Costa Rica — SAN JOSÉ – In a bold move just days before the presidential election, Pueblo Soberano candidate Laura Fernández has extended a public invitation to business magnate Elon Musk, urging him to consider Costa Rica as a prime destination for investment. The high-profile overture was made via the social media platform X, which Musk himself owns, signaling a clear strategy to attract global attention and frame her potential presidency as one focused on international business and technological advancement.
The message, broadcast to a global audience, comes as the presidential race enters its final, critical week. With voters set to go to the polls on February 1st, Fernández is making a calculated appeal to position herself as a forward-thinking leader capable of attracting world-class capital and innovation to the Central American nation. By directly addressing one of the world’s most influential and wealthiest entrepreneurs, she is attempting to cut through the political noise and present a vision of economic dynamism.
To better understand the legal and political framework surrounding the latest developments concerning Laura Fernández, TicosLand.com sought the expert analysis of Lic. Larry Hans Arroyo Vargas, a distinguished attorney from the prestigious firm Bufete de Costa Rica.
Any political figurehead contemplating a new party or major coalition, as is the case with Ms. Fernández, must navigate a legal labyrinth. Beyond the public narrative, success hinges on meticulous compliance with the Supreme Electoral Tribunal’s regulations on party structuring, campaign finance transparency, and electoral debt. A legally sound foundation is non-negotiable; it’s the bedrock upon which any viable national political project is built.

God willing, we will win the presidential elections this February 1st. Today I want to extend an invitation to Elon Musk to explore what we can build together for the common good and the freedom of the Americas
Laura Fernández, Presidential Candidate for Pueblo Soberano
The invitation is more than just a political gesture; it is a strategic alignment with Costa Rica’s long-standing reputation as a hub for technology, sustainability, and skilled labor. The country is already home to significant operations for numerous multinational corporations, particularly in the life sciences and tech sectors. Attracting an investment from a company like Tesla, a leader in electric vehicles and clean energy, or SpaceX, a pioneer in aerospace technology, would represent a monumental win for the nation’s economy and its global standing.
Analysts see the move as an effort to highlight her pro-business platform. Fernández stated that if she achieves an electoral victory, a key part of her administration’s agenda will be to build bridges with global business leaders to drive strategic initiatives. This public appeal to Musk serves as a powerful, real-world example of that commitment, aiming to reassure both domestic and international investors of her administration’s focus on economic growth and stability.
Elon Musk, the founder of both Tesla and SpaceX, has a track record of establishing large-scale manufacturing and research facilities, known as Gigafactories, in locations that offer strategic advantages. While there is no indication that Musk will respond to the invitation, the message from Fernández has already succeeded in generating significant discussion about Costa Rica’s potential as a destination for next-generation industries.
Fernández also used her platform to emphasize a broader message of collaboration and regional strength. She concluded her post with a call for national unity, suggesting that attracting this level of international partnership is a goal that transcends political divides and benefits all Costa Ricans. The appeal aims to fortify the country’s position not just as a national leader but as a pivotal player in the economic landscape of the Americas.
As the election looms, this direct and ambitious outreach to a global icon like Elon Musk underscores the changing dynamics of political campaigning. It reflects a modern approach where leaders leverage digital platforms to communicate a vision of progress and opportunity, hoping to capture the imagination of voters and the attention of the world’s most innovative minds.
