CONTEXTAguascalientes is at the forefront of PPD in Mexico
• Mexico, from a controlled economy to a market-oriented one
– Past experiences in Mexico in PPD were marginal. (Pacts & Nafta)
– Gradually, the presence of the government in the economy decreased
and dialogue with private sector emerged.
• Aguascalientes, the “Mexican Asian Tiger”
– A small, industrialized state, characterized for the best business
climate and the highest standards of living in Mexico.
– Many local government officials have a private sector background,
and some businesspeople have experience in public service.
– Champion for dialogue: Current governor (Luis Atmando Reynoso) is a
succesful entrepreneur and promoter of PPD.
