The Mexico's Institute for Competitiveness- think tank focussed on improving competitiveness within the Mexican economy

05/27/2010

As much as an additional 2.5 percentage points of estimated growth could be generated in the Mexican economy by bringing competitive practices. This includes introducing competition and lowering prices in sectors ranging from telecom, transportation to banking. The most glaring example is the telecom monopoly in Mexico. Mexico's Competition Commission and the OECD study estimates about one third of Mexcan household purchases are made in monopolisic or oligopolistic sectors. Other areas for change to generate this additional growth are the oil sector, electricity, and labor laws. The Pact for Mexico signed by all of the major political parties is designed to make these changes after decades of slow GDP growth.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
