About the company

Fundacion Ciudad Del Saber, doing business as CDS, a Panama-based nonprofit foundation, operates as a prime recipient of federal grants and as a sub-recipient on NIH research awards, delivering educational programming, cultural center operations, and epidemiological research coordination in Panama on behalf of the U.S. State Department and the National Institutes of Health.

CDS holds no federal contracts. Its activity is exclusively grant-based: 16 prime grant awards (84% of the 19 total awards in the source data) and 3 sub-awards on NIH research grants. The vendor's federal footprint is concentrated in two State Department bureaus. The Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs funds 9 prime awards, anchored by recurring Cooperative Agreements to contract higher-education specialists (EducationUSA advisors) in Panama, to operate and maintain the American Center at La Plaza in Ciudad del Saber, and to support programming for out-of-school STEAM activities aligned with NASA and GLOBE programs. The Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs funds 6 prime awards, including a $1 million cooperative agreement (award date April 5, 2024, completion date June 2, 2025) for space maintenance and salary support for the Panama American Center multi-function space, and a $1 million cooperative agreement (award date June 11, 2026, completion date December 11, 2026) to staff, operate, and maintain the American Space at La Plaza for an additional six months. CDS also appears as a sub-recipient on NIH research grants managed by the University of Florida: a June 2024 research subaward and a May 2025 grant sub-award focused on arboviral infection surveillance, subject recruitment, and entomological sampling across 60 sites in Darien, Panama over four years under the direction of the Gorgas Institute (ICGES) investigators based at CDS.

Recent grant activity shows three awards in 2025 and one in 2026, with two awards reaching completion inside the next twenty-four months. Combined dollars obligated across all 19 awards total $1.7 million. CDS serves five federal agencies across its prime and sub portfolio; customer concentration is absolute within State Department bureaus, which account for 15 of 19 awards. The vendor's capability portfolio is centered on cultural and educational center operations, EducationUSA advising, and field epidemiological research infrastructure (subject recruitment, serum banking, mosquito collection and characterization) in support of U.S. public diplomacy and infectious-disease research objectives in Panama.
