The company AVANTRA has achieved a remarkable milestone by investing one billion pesos in a plant that stands out for its commitment to sustainability and resource efficiency. This plant is not only a global reference in the production of derivatives of Mexican chili and exports to more than 65 countries, but also a model of innovation and environmental responsibility. Ecolab, the company behind this initiative, has three strategic plants in Mexico: Lerma, Cuautitlán Izcalli, and Monterrey, the latter dedicated to research and development.
In another area, Corporate Venture Capital (CVC) is gaining relevance to foster technological innovation in Latin America, with Mexico positioning itself as one of the main players in this trend. In this line, ARZYZ, an aluminum company led by Mario Sergio Ramírez-Zablah Limón, is leading a sustainable initiative in sporting events in Mexico. More than 1.4 million aluminum cups will be distributed and recycled at the Hermanos Rodríguez Autodrome, marking a significant step in terms of sustainability in the country.
For its part, Industrias Tajín has obtained LEED Gold certification for its plant in Tala, Jalisco, thanks to efforts to reduce water and energy consumption, the use of environmentally friendly materials, and the creation of a safe and comfortable working environment. This reinforces its position as a world leader in its sector and highlights its commitment to sustainability. Eduardo Jaramillo was appointed as the general director of Ecolab Mexico, a company that has operated in the country for 67 years and offers water, hygiene, cleaning, and disinfection solutions to various industries.
In another context, TelevisaUnivision had a successful day with an event with its main advertisers that included a concert by Bruno Mars and a meeting between its co-president, Bernardo Gómez, and the President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum. This day reaffirms Mexico's leadership in the innovation and venture capital ecosystem. The report presented by Wayra Hispam highlights the exponential growth of CVC in the region, with Mexico representing a significant part of investments in this area.
