Officials to Discuss Strength of U.S.-Mexican Relationship
U.S.
Secretary of Commerce Don Evans and Mexico’s Secretary of
the Economy Fernando Canales will visit KMD Architects in San Francisco,
Calif. Tuesday, June 10, 2003 to highlight
successful U.S. private sector involvement in Mexico’s economic
future. KMD, a large architectural firm, has operated a successful
office in Mexico City since 1990 and has seen the benefits of investing
in the Mexican economy. Evans and Canales will tour the facility,
meet with KMD employees and hold a media availability.
Evans and Canales are fulfilling the
commitments made by U.S. President George W. Bush and Mexican President
Vicente Fox during their historic summit in September 2001, which
called for the United States and Mexico to jointly sponsor a ‘Partnership
for Prosperity’ Entrepreneurial Workshop. This event, which
is being held in San Francisco June 9-10, will encourage U.S. and
Mexican private sector involvement in Mexico’s economic future.
U.S. Commerce Secretary Don Evans and Mexico’s Secretary of
the Economy Fernando Canales are the hosts of the conference, which
