Demographic bonus and shared values

Back to Programme

Context
Globalisation is here to stay. Companies of all sizes face similar challenges: how to be present everywhere and still perform at a local/regional level.

In previous Chapters of the Bilateral Business Summit Series we have learned from the experiences of large and small multi-national enterprises. We have also discussed the rationale behind a transatlantic partnership on all levels.

But in order to develop sound strategies we always come back to the same sort of questions: who should do the job and how can I make sure that we will find people that complement our competencies.

The presentation
Mexico has a demographic bonus. This bonus is not only a quantitative but also a qualitative bonus. Around 100 thousand young professionals graduate every year from technically orientated disciplines. This can arguably seen as a luxury by people in Europe, where a) birthrates are not keeping up and b) young people are not too fond of technical professions.

Here we see offer meet demand but deeper down we see that there is need to refine the remote skill sets required by companies.

Senator Wolf has been instrumental in laying out and executing strategies to foster common grounds for Mexican and German companies to thrive in mutual interest.
