IMPACT REPORT
The energy industry is going through a new transformation period. Not long after the enforcement of the Energy Reform during the Peña Nieto administration, a new paradigm looms on the horizon as President López Obrador works on passing a new reform to Congress to backtrack previous efforts and return PEMEX and CFE to their leading position in the Mexican energy market. The path is uncertain but new opportunities are destined to arise. The success of the Mexican energy industry will be defined by the business and political leaders shaping its future today. We bring these leaders together at Mexico Energy Forum to exchange essential industry information, expertise and opportunities, to find solutions to overcome industry challenges, to connect financing and opportunities, to match supply and demand and to accelerate innovation. In 2021, the two editions of Mexico Energy Forum brought together 870 industry leaders representing 382 companies, welcomed 103 speakers, generated 3,912 matchmaking interactions that resulted in 512 high-level 1:1 meetings, and generated 1,085 pre-qualified leads for 23 sponsors. In 2022, we will continue maximizing the impact of our conferences for participants, speakers and sponsors. Our conference programs will offer inside perspectives on the topics that matter most, and are designed to help industry leaders make better decisions and drive results. By leveraging leading-edge technology and artificial intelligence, we will deliver unprecedented matchmaking and lead-generation results at a time when connecting supply and demand remains challenging. We look forward to helping you achieve your marketing, commercial and strategic objectives!
