Hon Hai Technology Group, a global leader in high-tech manufacturing, and the Chihuahua State Government are excited to announce a strategic partnership aimed at advancing talent training, fostering innovation technology, and promoting sustainable energy development in Mexico’s largest state.
This partnership reflects a shared vision between Foxconn and the Chihuahua State Government to elevate the latter’s industrial capabilities, empower its workforce, and contribute to sustainable economic development. By combining expertise and resources, the effort is anticipated to drive positive change, shape the future of manufacturing, and contribute to the prosperity of Chihuahua and its residents.
The focus will be threefold:
Seizing Opportunities from Nearshoring
The thriving landscape of nearshoring presents immense opportunities along with unique challenges for the State of Chihuahua. Foxconn has invested over half a billion US dollars in the state and is one of the leading maquiladoras in Mexico. The partnership will focus on optimizing supply chains, enhancing infrastructure, and fostering an environment conducive to growth and innovation.
Empowering Human Talent and Driving Innovation
Foxconn is committed to nurturing a talent pool equipped with cutting-edge skills to meet the demands of the evolving ICT & Automotive industry. In partnership with the state, we aim to develop training programs and initiatives that will empower the workforce and position Chihuahua as a hub for innovation-driven manufacturing.
Collaborative Efforts in Electricity Development
Together with the Chihuahua State Government, Foxconn aspires to enhance energy efficiency, explore renewable energy sources, and support sustainable power solutions. This collaboration underscores our shared commitment to environmentally responsible practices and driving positive change for the business community in San Jerónimo and Juárez.

The Pulse: Commonsense Cost Cutting
08/29/2024 | Martyn Gaudion -- Column: The PulseOne difference between engineering and pure science is that engineers (in most situations) are looking for cost-effectiveness. They do so by designing the most appropriate level of technology to maximize profitability with acceptable levels of application functionality. One area that is often overlooked is the energy cost of PCB production. At a recent EIPC conference, Dr. Maarten Cauwe of IMEC in Belgium presented a combined study of the lifecycle impact (LCI) of electronics systems and subassemblies. The study looked at the supply chain as well as the energy impact of HDIs.
