Company profile
Chihuahua State Government’s economic-development promotion includes the Promotora para el Desarrollo Económico del Estado de Chihuahua (PRODECH), a decentralized organization responsible for promoting investment attraction and administering state-government industrial parks. PRODECH bases this work on Chihuahua’s opportunities, services, infrastructure, and incentives, which are presented as factors in the region’s competitiveness. The economic-development program promotes entrepreneurship and business development, social economy, and handicraft development, including public policies intended to create growth opportunities for micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MiPyMEs) and improve their competitiveness. It also promotes domestic and foreign trade, the formation of cooperatives and micro-industrial organizations, and the commercialization of handicrafts and local products. The Fideicomiso Estatal para el Fomento de las Actividades Productivas en el Estado de Chihuahua (FIDEAPECH) provides financing options for entrepreneurs and micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises through different loan modalities aimed at the state’s productive activities. The program promotes the Mining, Energy, and Industry sectors to increase competitiveness and attract investment, facilitates job creation, provides assistance and training to businesspeople, and promotes energy efficiency. It seeks a balance between productive and social activities through integrated development intended to generate well-being and opportunities. Scientific and technological knowledge and workforce capabilities are developed through the Instituto de Capacitación para el Trabajo (ICATECH), Centros de Alta Tecnología (CENALTEC/INADET), and Instituto de Innovación y Competitividad (I2C), with training programs oriented to present and future work needs. The program also provides technological services in specific areas demanded by industry and strategic research and technological-development projects intended to improve productivity and competitiveness in productive, social, public, and academic sectors. Through the Centro de Información Económica y Social (CIES), the state obtains, analyzes, and provides economic and social data and information for integrated advisory services and preparation of business plans for Chihuahua companies. CIES indicators are also used to evaluate and monitor the state’s economic and social performance. Chihuahua is presented as a cornerstone of the North American semiconductor ecosystem.
Exhibits
The supplied investment and ecosystem offering includes state-level investment attraction promotion and administration of state-government industrial parks through PRODECH. Support for business development includes public-policy programs for MiPyMEs, domestic and foreign trade promotion, cooperative and micro-industry formation, and commercialization of local products. FIDEAPECH provides financing options and multiple loan modalities for entrepreneurs and micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises across different productive activities in Chihuahua. The state’s economic-development services also cover Mining, Energy, and Industry competitiveness, investment attraction, employment generation, assistance and training for businesspeople, and energy-efficiency promotion. ICATECH, CENALTEC/INADET, and I2C provide training oriented to current and future work needs and support the development of scientific and technological knowledge and capabilities. Technological services are offered in industry-demanded areas together with strategic research and technological-development projects serving productive, social, public, and academic sectors. CIES obtains, analyzes, and provides relevant economic and social information for integrated advisory services and business-plan preparation, while indicators support evaluation and monitoring of Chihuahua’s economic and social performance. The listed specialization sectors are E-MOBILITY, HUB-LOGÍSTICO, ECONOMÍA BAJA EN CARBÓN, BIO ECONOMÍA, and INDUSTRIA INTELIGENTE. For companies evaluating the region, the offering therefore combines investment promotion, industrial-park administration, financing, workforce development, technological services, research and technological-development projects, economic information, and sector-focused development programs. The business-support framework connects financing and entrepreneurship programs with workforce training, industry-demanded technical services, and economic information used for advisory work and business planning. The industrial-development scope explicitly includes Mining, Energy, and Industry while the specialization list separately names e-mobility, logistics, low-carbon economy, bioeconomy, and smart industry. This combination makes the state presentation an ecosystem and investment-support offering rather than a semiconductor-product catalog, while the semiconductor statement positions Chihuahua within the North American ecosystem.
