Matt Landau is an American owner of Los Cuatro Tulipanes, nominated “Mexico & Central America’s Leading New Hotel in 2012″ by the World Travel Awards and ranked a “Top 10 Traveler’s Choice B&B in Central America” by millions of travelers on Trip Advisor. Under his wing is also The Canal House, the oldest-existing boutique hotel in the historic district of Panama City. Previously, Matt founded The Panama Report, one of the first investment journals in Panama, which was acquired by The Country Report LLC, a nation branding agency, in 2009.
He is a member of the Association for Place Branding and Public Diplomacy, has a 22 golf handicap, and, as much as he aspires to do so, has never successfully completed a Spanish-language crossword puzzle. Less impressive, he once won a bet by getting quoted in BusinessWeek using the word “balls.”
Matt holds an International Economics degree from the University of Richmond and a Spanish diploma from the University of St. Louis, Madrid, Spain. Google +
