Yucatán would receive delegations of American businessmen interested in investing in the state, said Ermilo Barrera Novelo, state secretary of Economic Development and Labor.
The official said that work will be done in special regions of the State that have a vocation for the aerospace industry, where it is believed that they can create productive links with other regions of the country and also internationally.
He anticipated that starting on Sunday, October 20, when Claudia Sheinbaum’s first official visit as president is expected, they will make more announcements.
Interviewed within the framework of the Expo Trade Fair, the secretary recalled that during a recent visit to Mexico City with Governor Joaquín Díaz Mena, they met with Marcelo Ebrard Casaubón, Secretary of Economy of the federal government, with whom they found total willingness to support the Mayan Renaissance project.
Although he said that the governor would announce the details later, he anticipated that they raised the need to establish actions to highlight that Yucatán not only has the vocation, but all the necessary elements to be a hub for receiving investments, “in such a way “What is needed is for several international delegations to be sent to us.”
The interviewee commented that the federal secretary saw this approach very favorably and there was talk of starting to talk with the advisory councils for investment and the financing program to detonate the new welfare poles. It is intended that productive vocations arrive in line with emerging sectors of industrialization 4.0.
“It was a very extensive meeting in which the governor managed to advance each of the points, and you can also see the desire that the Federation has to promote projects in the State,” he indicated.
He mentioned that there are plans for the agribusiness, forestry, logging industry, and the technological branch, among others.
Likewise, he said that they talked about the furniture industry, which is going to be strengthened because the State lost it. In addition, the strengthening of fishing, livestock, and agricultural products will be sought. A value and transformation chain would be promoted. Barrera Novelo also pointed out that the electrical, electronic, electro-mechanical, and clean energy industries would be promoted.
