According to both countries, the strategy has four objectives: support the integration of regional chains, expand activities with improvements in the investment climate, promote greater attraction of operations in assembly, testing and encapsulation, promote diversification to other types of activities and foster dialogues at the state and local level, as well as support workforce development efforts.
To achieve this, some of the strategies implemented since 2021 have been the development of the workforce through the selection of Mexican students who will be sent to Mesa Community College in Arizona to study the Automated Industrial Technology program, as well as the launch of the Single Window for Investors of the Ministry of Economy.
Another of the fundamental pillars addressed in the DEAN is the improvement of border conditions to facilitate travel and legal trade.
As part of the strategy is to resume in-person meetings of the Binational Group on bridges and International Crossings to coordinate infrastructure projects in the northern strip of Mexico, among which are improvements at the Calexico East port of entry, in San Luis, the construction of a Douglas commercial port of entry and the evaluation of the Santa Teresa-San Jerónimo expansion.
They also agreed to meet state and municipal governments, the private sector and civil society organizations, to request their cooperation in planning mobility between countries and binational transportation.
Added to the plan is the search to facilitate the commercialization of medical equipment through the streamlining of processes and reliability of the decisions of the FDA (Food and Drug Administration).
