November 28, 2025 | Alejandra Luna and Noe Rojas, GoaltechEstimated reading time: 1 minute
In the global supply chain, technical standards are the common language. But behind every production line lies something even more fundamental: skilled and certified people. That has always been the mission of Goaltech, a Mexican company that for over 15 years has been dedicated to raising the competitiveness of the industry through training, certification, and technological integration.
Engineering Applied to Change
One of Goaltech’s main contributions has been its role as a strategic partner in the development of spe-cialized technical talent. Through hands-on training, consulting, and structured programs like the Elec-tronics Manufacturing Academy (EMA), the com-pany promotes the adoption of technologies that allow users to transform their production processes.
EMA, with the support of Siemens’ Value, was launched in collaboration with leading electronics associations to educate users on digital transforma-tion. Through a series of technical modules, partici-pants learn to integrate technologies, optimize SMT processes across different machine brands, and establish a clear path toward digitalization.
“We identified a paradigm shift in how the indus-try approaches problem-solving,” says Noé Rojas, EMA developer. “With emerging technologies, experience, and dedication, we are bringing this knowledge closer to users. Sooner or later, they will implement it in their companies and transform their vision of the industry.”
The company has been recognized eight times as Meso Partner of the Year by Siemens, an award that highlights its commitment to excellence in technical training and its impact on the industry.

The Heart of the Electronics Industry Beats in Guanajuato: Salomon Ceballos
11/26/2025 | Lorena Villanueva, Global Electronics Association MexicoTechnological revolutions aren’t only measured in gigabytes, robots, or PCBs. They're also measured in people. In Guanajuato, the most strategic resource being built is not machinery, but talent. At the center of this transformation is Salomón Ceballos, general director of the State Training Institute (IECA). What makes IECA unique isn’t just its facilities, it’s its approach. Unlike most training institutes under the Education Department, IECA is part of Guanajuato’s Ministry of Economy, and that changes everything.
A Mindset of Sustainability Beyond Compliance
11/25/2025 | Barjouth Aguilar, FlexIn recent months, global discussions about corporate sustainability regulations have intensified. There’s a great deal of uncertainty and ambiguity about what lies ahead, but it’s equally true that many companies are already moving beyond compliance. We’re not just reacting to regulation; we’re acting because we believe it’s the right thing to do and because it makes business sense.

In the center of it all, a small crowd gathered for something far more kinetic. They were watching a 6-foot robot whir to life, lift a bright dodgeball, and launch it cleanly into a hoop across the aisle. The crowd erupted in cheers as the robot’s handlers—teenagers in blue shirts emblazoned with a roaring lion logo—rushed forward to reset the shot.
