Seventh Annual Building a Competitive U.S.- Mexico Border
Each year our border conference brings together policymakers, business leaders, and local elected officials for a dialogue that focuses on improving border management to strengthen the competitiveness of both the United States and Mexico. This year's event placed specific emphasis on trade, travel and health as we considered how the border region will recover from the myriad impacts of COVID-19.
The seventh annual-high level "Building a Competitive U.S.-Mexico Border" conference hosted by the Mexico Institute and the Border Trade Alliance featured panel discussions with U.S. and Mexican public and private sector officials bringing sought-after perspectives to two days of discussion on border management.
