Doha, Qatar. — The investment bridge between the Gulf and the Caribbean continues to strengthen. On Monday, Dominican Ambassador to Qatar, Dr. Federico Alberto Cuello Camillo, confirmed an increasing interest from Qatari businessmen in exploring investment opportunities across the Dominican Republic.
“This level of attention from Qatari investors is very encouraging,” stated the ambassador, emphasizing the mutual potential for economic cooperation, particularly in sectors such as tourism, infrastructure, and energy.
This announcement comes as no surprise to those who have witnessed the expanding presence of Gulf capital in the Caribbean. At Tempus Venture Partners, we’ve long understood that strategic interest flows where opportunity, stability, and value creation intersect. The Dominican Republic — with its robust tourism economy, attractive investment incentives, and geographic position as a regional hub — offers precisely that.
Guillermo Velasco, founder of Tempus and co-owner of Rexton Capital Partners in Qatar, has played a key role in forging cross-regional partnerships. Following the successful underwriting of the Amaterra megaresort in Jamaica, Tempus now supports broader Gulf-Caribbean integration — unlocking growth and aligning capital with regional priorities.
This new wave of interest reflects a growing recognition: Latin America and the Caribbean are no longer peripheral — they are strategic. And Qatar is watching closely.
At Tempus, we stand ready to facilitate this next chapter of cooperation. Our role is to bridge vision with action — and we are already doing it.
