AI-Powered Computers Arrive in Chihuahua and Jalisco
Chihuahua is known for manufacturing half of the computer equipment and components used in the construction of data centers for artificial intelligence systems in the United States, while Jalisco accounts for 25% of those products shipped abroad, according to the Center for Economic and Social Information (CIES) of the Chihuahua Ministry of Innovation and Economic Development.
CIES emphasizes that Chihuahua has been one of the leading exporters in North America and the world, with exports totaling US$ 35,986 million—a figure that has remained steady for a long time. According to this organization, which analyzes and compiles information to process data, 95% of its exports have consisted of advanced manufactured goods such as semiconductors and other equipment and components for data centers in the United States, with these transactions increasing by 65% worldwide.
Throughout the state's history, the business agency developed a strategic plan that led to the creation of industrial parks, the best-known of which is located in the capital. This idea laid the foundation for what is now the manufacturer industry, and the Chihuahua State Economic Development Business Organization has played a key role in the growth of the state's manufacturing sector.
Today, there are more than 700 export companies operating in Chihuahua, including manufacturers of computer equipment for artificial intelligence such as Wiwynn, Ingrasys, PCE Technology, Pegatron, Foxconn, Quanta Computer, and Flex.
On the other hand, CIES has identified Jalisco as the state with the highest export volume in Mexico, home to manufacturers of these technological components such as Flex, Foxconn, and Pegatron. As of today, it is reported that more than 600 companies are operating in the Electronics Cluster, boosting export productivity.
According to INEGI (the National Institute of Statistics and Geography), that state's economy has reached US$17,377 million in exports, representing a 107% increase.
