The Trade Mission in Mexico, a strategic point for advanced manufacturing in North America, connects participants with the Monterrey and Guadalajara hubs, where the adoption of 3D printing technologies applied to industry, education, and business innovation is growing rapidly. The agenda includes visits to specialized regional forums and Expo Manufactura, the country’s most relevant industrial event. Attendees will observe solutions in prototyping, metal fabrication, composite materials, and design for digital manufacturing. Meetings with suppliers, integrators, industrial clusters, and technological accelerators will be promoted. The mission allows exploring nearshoring opportunities, commercial alliances, and technical sourcing. Additionally, real cases of additive manufacturing integration into Mexican productive chains will be analyzed. Upon completion, participants will obtain a solid perspective of the Latin American market and concrete expansion opportunities.
