Contribution of Innovation to GDP Growth (percentage of contributions 1995-2006)
At the international level, a positive link has been observed between innovation and economic growth. In more developed countries, innovation accounts for between two thirds and three quarters of the GDP growth rates observed between 1995 and 2006.

Ecosystem for Innovation
Ensuring a suitable environment for innovation is complex, since:a) It requires the participation of various actors, which easily leads to problems of
coordination.b) The presence of externalities often creates under-investment in socially profitable
areas.

Regulatory framework
The Law of Science and Technology was reformed in 2009, establishing the basis for
a normative institutional framework that encourages innovation. Among other
elements, this reform establishes:
Innovation as the guiding principle
The creation of an Inter-Sectoral Committee for Innovation
A legal framework for the Creation of Liaison and Knowledge Transfer Units
An incentive for researchers to be able to benefit from intellectual property
royalties
The strategy adopted has made it possible to strengthen the various features
of the innovation ecosystem.

Manufacture of transport equipment-automotive industry
• The Mexican auto industry has advanced in the value chain, particularly in
innovation and its focus on areas of greater added value such as design.
• Some of the plants located in Mexico are world references:
Ford in Hermosillo, which produces hybrid automobiles
Chrysler in Saltillo, which produces the world-renowned HEMI engine
Nissan in Aguascalientes, which, for the past year, has implemented the
Nissan Green Program, designed to recycle 100% of the waste materials
produced during the manufacturing process. This is the first plant outside
Japan to comply with the program.
20
• Finished goods manufacturers in the auto industry that confirm the trend of this
sector towards activities with greater added value include:
The Chrysler Advanced Engineering and Design Center which carries out
research projects and engineering tests, studies on environmentally friendly raw
materials and emission reductions.
The Nissan Center for Modeling Automobile Design Prototypes in Mexicali,
which began operating in January 2010 and performs world design operations
using computer assisted stations.
The General Motors Regional Engineering Center, which forms part of the
General Motors Global Engineering and Manufacturing Platform, which conducts
research and development of engineering with an environmental impact.
