“Our city (Tijuana) and entity along with San Diego and Southern California have been key to our sector’s success for several decades enriching our five business segments: a) Commercial Aviation, b) Defense, c) Space, d) Unmanned Vehicles, and e) MRO/R&O with an export value in 2014 estimated in $ 2 billion USD alone in Baja California. Now with this cooperation agreement we are formalizing the exchanging of information and strengthening our flow of communication. This will result in better business opportunities for both sides within a bi-national spirit in our region.”
