This year's conference, "Transporte
International & Supply Chain Integration 2008:
Transportation, Infrastructure, Energy, and Agriculture
Summit" is designed to address the issues
facing international trade, manufacturing,
transportation and all related business. We will bring
together business leaders and key bi-national government
leaders to dialog and explore a broad range of ways to
further integrate our economies through trade. It is our
intent to focus on current issues that affect
transportation, energy, agriculture, manufacturing,
services, trade facilitation, regulatory structure and
emerging barriers for the express purpose of continuing
to address the most important issues and information
needed for our countries to have a competitive edge in
the global market.
This important public-private sector event will
enhance the capacity of our two countries to enhance
their joint competitiveness and participation in the
global trade system. The conference will promote
transportation, energy and trade capacity building,
security and sector development, both of which are
consistent with NAFTA, the Security and Prosperity
Partnership (SPP), and Mexico's National Infrastructure
Program 2007-2012. |
