Invest Monterrey proudly participated in the IEDC 2025 Annual Conference, held in Detroit, Michigan, reaffirming our commitment to strengthening Monterrey’s role as one of the leading economic development hubs in Mexico and Latin America.
 

The International Economic Development Council (IEDC) is the largest global membership organization for economic developers, with over 5,000 members representing regions, cities, chambers, and organizations from around the world. Its annual conference is recognized as one of the most important international gatherings for economic development professionals, offering a platform to exchange ideas, share best practices, and explore innovative strategies to drive sustainable growth.
 

This year’s edition of the IEDC Annual Conference 2025 brought together thought leaders, policymakers, and practitioners from across the globe to discuss the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of investment attraction, regional competitiveness, and innovation ecosystems.
 

For Invest Monterrey, participating in the event was an invaluable opportunity to connect with global peers, strengthen international partnerships, and learn about successful case studies from other regions. Key themes at the conference included digital transformation, talent development, the rise of advanced manufacturing, and sustainable investment strategies—all areas that directly align with Monterrey’s economic development priorities.
 

By taking part in this global forum, Invest Monterrey continues to position Monterrey on the international stage as a world-class destination for investment. The insights gained and connections made in Detroit will directly support our mission to attract new opportunities, foster innovation, and further consolidate Monterrey’s position as Mexico’s most competitive region.
 

We look forward to applying the knowledge and strategies shared at the IEDC 2025 Annual Conference to strengthen our region’s economic future and to continue building bridges with partners around the world.
