As always a very good seminar with the right insight and approaches to the different subjects. Not to mention all the organization running seamlessly.
Great event; focused panels of relevant topics with experts from a good cross-section of government, investors and industrial companies. The limited number of guests makes it great for effective networking.
It was a great couple of days with spot-on topics and great attendance. The Mexico Assembly was well organized with a great selection of topics and moderators. Networking opportunities during breaks were very fruitful since a lot of people flew into Mexico City.
Meet the Speakers
Niels Versfeld
The biggest challenge in Mexico is the same for anywhere in the energy industry, how do we provide the sustainable energy people are demanding in an environment where prices are depressed and volatile.
Jim Chisholm
The Canadian industry is facing some challenges in recent years, so you may see more Canadian companies show up in Mexico if the climate is investor-friendly.
Alejandro Moreno Benitez
We really believe that tender mechanisms and the energy reform have been very positive for the development of renewable energies in Mexico.
Alfonso Araiza
I believe Mexico continues to be a good option to invest in 2019. Despite the uncertainty related to the installation of a new administration, the needs, and hence the opportunities across the value chain remain.
Diogo Pais dos Santos
Mexico is a market of over 120 million people and very rich in natural resources, with strong companies, either on the private sector or the public one so it is an important country from an international point of view.
