What local incentives can QOFs receive if they chose to invest in Puerto Rico?

I have heard that the U.S. territory is fueled by post-hurricane funding from the federal government that are driving an infrastructure renovation and tech boom.

    Puerto Rico offers a great incentive program for which the operating businesses may apply in different industries: tourism, manufacture, green and renewable energy, some real estate project to mention some of them. This benefits entail reduced income and other local taxes rates and in some cases tax credits that may be sold in the local credit market. The combination of the benefits with the OZ incentives, will provide a higher rate of return to investors in certain cases.
