The EIC, in partnership with the Department for International Trade (DIT) launched a series of Mexico Energy webinars in February and March, specifically focused on opportunities to diversify from oil and gas to renewables, to ‘greening’ operations, and achieving net-zero around traditional oil and gas operations. The first webinar provided a Mexico Market Update, with delegates receiving presentations from Juliana Correa, Director, DIT; Miguel Carreon, Senior Commercial Director Mexico & Central America, Baker Hughes and our own Neil Golding, Director of Business Intelligence. This first webinar in the series provided a greater awareness of Mexico business opportunities for the UK supply chain, all while facilitating Mexico access to UK expertise through speedy networking exchanges with speakers. The adoption of net-zero strategies and the scaling up of renewables will lead to a new market dynamic for Mexico. Get in touch Share your news and views...
