Panamá Hub digital es la Estrategia para el Desarrollo del Sector de las Tecnologías de Información y la Comunicación (TIC) para los próximos 10 años, que tiene como principal objetivo que Panamá se convierta en un Centro de Innovación Digital. 

Para ello, el Gobierno panameño y el sector privado ya han ideado una serie de estrategias para llegar a lograrlo.  Dichas estrategias están apoyadas en 4 pilares fundamentales, las dos primeras son el talento humano, o recurso humano especializado en el área tecnológica, infraestructura tanto física como social, esto incluye factores materiales y sociales del entorno que facilitan o entorpecen las posibilidades de innovación en el sector.  

Los otros dos son recursos financieros,   y marco legal y regulatorio. La Estrategia crea un mapa a seguir de programas y proyectos coordinados para lograr los objetivos estratégicos,  para promover relaciones de clúster y recursos suficientes para hacer al sector TIC competitivo a nivel internacional.

Para lograr desarrollar estos dos primeros pilares, ya se han realizado alianzas entre instituciones educativas como el Instituto Técnico Superior Especializado (ITSE), la Universidad Tecnológica de Panamá (UTP), Universidad de Panamá entre otros centros de educación superior. 

Y como se trata de una agenda de país también se logró un importante acercamiento con la Autoridad Nacional para la Innovación Gubernamental (AIG), Secretaría Nacional de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación (SENACYT) y la Cámara Panameña de Tecnologías de Información e Innovación (CAPATEC); entre otras. 

Los centros de innovación tecnológica y de investigación también se unen a este esfuerzo por lograr que Panamá se convierta en un Hub de tecnología.  Para ello, se ha creado el primer Observatorio Panameño de Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación (OPTIC), que tiene como objetivo comprender la evolución y perspectivas del sector TIC de Panamá. El Observatorio definirá información e indicadores del sector que servirán para elaborar políticas públicas y para el desarrollo de estrategias de mercado.

Panama Digital Hub is the Strategy for the Development of the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) Sector for the next 10 years, which has as its main objective that Panama becomes a Digital Innovation Center. 

To this end, the Panamanian Government and the private sector have already devised a series of strategies to achieve this. These strategies are supported by 4 fundamental pillars, the first two are human talent, or human resource specialized in the technological area, physical and social infrastructure, this includes material and social factors of the environment that facilitate or hinder the possibilities of innovation in the sector.  

The other two are financial resources, and legal and regulatory framework. The Strategy creates a map to follow of coordinated programs and projects to achieve strategic objectives, to promote cluster relationships and sufficient resources to make the ICT sector competitive internationally.

To develop these first two pillars, alliances have already been made between educational institutions such as the Specialized Higher Technical Institute (ITSE), the Technological University of Panama (UTP), University of Panama among other higher education centers. 

And as it is a country agenda, an important rapprochement was also achieved with the National Authority for Government Innovation (AIG), National Secretariat of Science, Technology and Innovation (SENACYT) and the Panamanian Chamber of Information Technologies and Innovation (CAPATEC); among others. 

The centers of technological innovation and research also join this effort to make Panama become a technology hub.  To this end, the first Panamanian Observatory of Information and Communication Technologies (OPTIC) has been created, which aims to understand the evolution and perspectives of Panama's ICT sector. The Observatory shall define sectoral information and indicators for the purpose of developing public policies and market strategies.
