President of CLAU<strong>GTO</strong><br />
CLAU<strong>GTO</strong> (Cluster Automotriz de Guanajuato A.C) is a civil,<br />
non-profit, nongovernmental & non-partisan association<br />
founded in 2013 by the major auto parts companies in the<br />
state of Guanajuato, in center Mexico.<br />
Since that date, our main purpose has been increase the<br />
competitiveness of the auto parts and automotive sector<br />
in the area. Through real collaboration among the major<br />
players in the industry, supported by various federal and<br />
state government institutions, local research centers,<br />
universities and related associations.<br />
In the first three and a half years that we have been serving<br />
the industry we have gone from having 4 formal associates<br />
to 100 in the first Q of 2017. This show us that the model<br />
of mutual collaborations on which CLAU<strong>GTO</strong> is based is<br />
without doubt its main competitive advantage.<br />
Inside our 6 majors work committees (Human Capital,<br />
Innovation & Technology, Purchase, Supply Chain, Local<br />
Supplier Development & Property Security) we are focused<br />
in solve and provide long-term services and solutions for all<br />
our partners and other companies in the sector.<br />
Only in 2016 we attended more than 1’000 T1, T2 and T3<br />
local and foreign companies in the region through multiple<br />
projects that included the participation of multiple actors<br />
that without the formal intervention of the Cluster would it<br />
be complicated to achieve.<br />
In this order, our partnership with the Guanajuato Trade<br />
Commission (COFOCE) has been very productive in<br />
creating instruments for the strengthen of the industry’s<br />
supply chain through <strong>GTO</strong> <strong>Automotive</strong> program. Also,<br />
through this collaboration has been more accessible to<br />
offer business solutions for our associates.<br />
We encourage you to approach to the <strong>GTO</strong> <strong>Automotive</strong><br />
program to know all the possibilities of collaboration and<br />
business opportunities that already exist in Guanajuato, its<br />
companies and its people.<br />
You will not regret it!<br />
