Chihuahua in northern Mexico is to host the 27th TCI Global World Conference in October.
The event will gather global experts in automation, AI, economic development schemes, new business models and venture capital for the supply chain.
The conference, scheduled for October 8 to 10 this year, will feature prominent speakers including Italian economist Mariana Mazzucato, a global authority on economic development, and Rebeca Hwang, an expert in AI and automation.
Luis Oliver Torres García, Director of Economic Development of the State of Chihuahua (DESEC) and a member of the TCI Network, told EFE that the city of Chihuahua has been a key player in this organization, which is why the event will be held in this northern Mexican state, a national leader in exports due to its extensive maquiladora industry.
Torres García explained that a cluster is an organization that brings together the private sector, academia and the government to develop a specific economic sector through a joint strategy, and the event will include economic development organisations from 80 countries.
“This forum is precisely for that, to see what is happening between regions, what they are doing in Europe, how other countries are handling it, what other development agencies are doing in terms of supporting companies,” said Torres García.
The city of Chihuahua was chosen to host the 26th TCI Global World Conference on 2023, for its emphasis on economic development and amid Mexico’s rise as one of the main destinations for nearshoring or business relocation.
