About the session

This lecture offers a general overview of Mexico’s manufacturing capabilities, especially the auto parts and the car manufacturing evolution.

Mexico moved from a closed economy to a wide open market in a short time by establishing a set of incentive polices, specific education efforts and technological innovations in manufacturing processes and building a closer relationship between government, industry and academia.

The Aeronautical Sector in the State of Querétaro is an example of the new culture and capabilities that the country is improving to become a significant player in the Advance Manufacturing Industry.
