More than 35 million pesos in business opportunities were generated during the business networking meeting held between the Austrian automotive company, HENN, and Guanajuatense suppliers, as part of the Industrial Connection strategy promoted by the Secretary of Economy.

The People’s Government, led by Governor Libia Dennise Garcia Munoz Ledo, promotes an economic policy that links the attraction of investments with the strengthening of local suppliers, generating more opportunities for companies in Guanajuato.

This event was attended by 31 supplier companies from:

• Leon, Salamanca, Silao, Irapuato, Apaseo el Grande, San Francisco del Rincon and Celaya

The companies work in sectors such as:

• Manufacturing and metalworking, maintenance and industrial installations, engineering and automation, as well as construction and industrial services

The business opportunities were concentrated in specialized areas such as:

• Pneumatic and electrical installations, metrology, industrial maintenance, industrial lighting, ventilation and hot air extraction, automation with robots, as well as services for the installation of plastic injection plants, including high tonnage handling and installation of machinery and peripheral equipment

Of the total number of participating companies, 18 have the Marca Guanajuato emblem, which reflects the capacity and competitiveness of local business talent to integrate into high-tech industrial projects.

HENN recently inaugurated its plant in Guanajuato with a $4 million investment. The company is internationally recognized for manufacturing components for the automotive industry, further strengthening the State’s position within the automotive parts sector.

Through the Industrial Connection strategy, the Secretary of Economy promotes meeting spaces between leading companies (established or in the process of establishing themselves in Guanajuato) and Guanajuatense suppliers, with the purpose of generating new business opportunities and expanding the participation of small and medium-sized enterprises in the value chains of the industry.

To date, 7 Industrial Connection meetings have been held, in which 309 companies have participated, with an estimated sales of more than 207 million pesos, reflecting the impact of this strategy on strengthening the State’s productive ecosystem.

With these actions, Guanajuato continues to consolidate an economic development model that combines attracting investment with the growth of local suppliers, generating opportunities for Guanajuatense companies to participate in increasingly competitive markets.
