Mexico Energy Summit 2017 | The Economist | 7 September 2017 | The St. Regis, Paseo de la Reforma 439, Cuauhtémoc - Mexico City

From energy and infrastructure to retail and communications, the 2017 event will explore how an increasingly digital Mexico provides both new opportunities and challenges for businesses and government.
The pace of technological change is disrupting established industries and altering the course of global business. Rather than products, companies are increasingly exporting ideas, which require a radically different supply and production chain.

From energy and infrastructure to retail and communications, the 2017 event will explore how an increasingly digital Mexico provides both new opportunities and challenges for businesses and government. It will examine how issues of evergreen importance such as trade, security and economics are being addressed in the digital age, with no shortage of analysis on the implications of Donald Trump’s election as US President and the impending Mexican general elections in July 2018.
