In order to listen to all the relevant players in the automotive industry in Mexico and its derivatives, the Working Group for the Electrification of Transportation proposed organizing round tables with the competent legal bodies on lithium, with the aim of guaranteeing that this resource generate the greatest benefits for the country.

When we presented the United States-Mexico High-Level Group for the Electrification of Transportation a year ago, at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it seemed a long way off to be able to count on a diagnosis that, together with a series of recommendations, would serve to give us the impetus necessary for the transition of the Mexican automotive industry to electromobility. Today this is already a reality and a panorama of opportunities for our country is glimpsed.
