AmCham Launches New Council to Strengthen U.S. Business Engagement in Mexico

AmCham Guadalajara launched a new business council to connect U.S. companies with local authorities, promoting investment and binational cooperation under the USMCA framework.

New Council Aims to Bolster Regional Competitiveness

A group of leading American corporations operating in Mexico has formed a new business council aimed at enhancing dialogue with local authorities and fostering a stronger investment climate. Spearheaded by the Guadalajara Chapter of the American Chamber of Commerce of Mexico (AmCham), this initiative seeks to align the interests of the private sector with regional development goals.

U.S. Companies Deepen Commitment Through Strategic Collaboration

The newly established council includes representatives from major multinational firms across the technology, logistics, consumer goods, and advanced manufacturing sectors. Among the participating companies are Emerson, IBM, HP Inc., HPE, Oracle, JABIL, ANIXTER, Flex, Koch, Marsh, and others with long-standing operations in Mexico.

Their involvement reinforces the importance of Mexico as a strategic destination for foreign direct investment and a key player in North America’s integrated supply chains under the USMCA.

Structured Dialogue for Long-Term Growth

The council serves as a platform for continuous engagement between government officials and U.S. businesses, with the goal of identifying shared priorities in areas such as infrastructure, workforce development, regulatory stability, and regional integration. The creation of this forum reflects a broader effort to support investment certainty and strengthen the region’s global competitiveness.

Public-Private Alignment Under the AmCham Framework

The launch event brought together state-level officials, diplomatic representatives, and senior executives, highlighting the value of coordinated strategies to promote innovation and resilience. This initiative also reinforces AmCham’s role as a key institutional connector between U.S. investors and local decision-makers.
