MONTERREY, NL

In the last 10 years, the indissoluble alliance of Academia-Government-Industry through the triple helix model has managed to make Nuevo Leon a leader state in science, technology and innovation.

The State’s Innovation Ecosystem contains legal, budgetary, strategic and institutional frameworks that ensure its long-term development and implementation, supporting 13 strategic clusters and focusing on building up and strengthen the 4 key capacities defined by the model.
