USMCOC Aguascalientes Chapter Holds First Ordinary Session of 2026
The USMCOC Aguascalientes Chapter convened its first 2026 session amid critical Mexico-US bilateral relations, focusing on economic certainty, risk analysis, and investment protection.
At a moment of critical definitions for the bilateral relationship between Mexico and the United States, the Mexico-United States Chamber of Commerce (USMCOC) Aguascalientes Chapter held its first ordinary session of 2026. The first meeting of the year, conducted at the DILUSA company facilities, occurred just one day after the first formal contact between President
and
, setting an agenda where economic certainty and risk analysis have become the priority for the entity’s capital. Rafael López Rivera, president of the chapter, opened the session, emphasizing the need for a shared vision in a year that is shaping up to be a diplomatic and commercial challenge. The meeting was not merely ceremonial; it solidified as a space for analysis amidst the volatility generated by recent geopolitical tensions following the capture of Nicolás Maduro and the announcement of a potential intervention in Mexican territory, factors that keep investments in the Bajío industrial corridor under scrutiny.
Investment Shielding
One of the core points of the day was the presentation by Gabriel Reyes, Vice President of Economic Analysis for USMCOC and a director at Grupo Monex, who unveiled the «Economic Outlook 2026». In his presentation, Reyes addressed macroeconomic scenarios and global risks faced by exporting companies, emphasizing that operational resilience will be key to navigating a year of high inflationary pressure and supply chain adjustments. Reinforcing this business shielding approach, the firm
– through Gustavo Saucedo – presented an «Informative Fiscal Flash». Before the chamber’s members, current regulatory and fiscal updates for this fiscal year were detailed, an indispensable tool for companies seeking to maintain regulatory compliance in a stricter and more dynamic audit environment.
From Aguascalientes to the Asian Market
In addition to the technical analysis, the session highlighted the importance of human capital and business ethics. Rodolfo Gómez, representing USEM, extended an invitation to the “Leadership with Human Sense” diploma program, an initiative aimed at training executives capable of positively influencing workplace climate and social responsibility. Meanwhile, the chapter director, Janette Rodríguez, thanked Juan Carlos Díaz, General Director of DILUSA, for hosting the event, and reaffirmed the Chamber’s commitment to continue strengthening cross-border ties. To conclude the day and demonstrate the network’s interconnectivity, López Rivera extended an invitation from the California Chapter for the Asia 2026 Trade Mission, an opportunity for Aguascalientes companies to diversify their presence in international markets. The event concluded with the presentation of the Chamber’s Official Pin to Gustavo Garcés, from Alternativa Oportuna, symbolizing the integration of new stakeholders into a business community that, in the face of contentious foreign policy, is committed to strengthening the North American trade bloc.
