HIGH LEVEL ECONOMIC DIALOGUE - INITIATIVE FACT SHEETS

Telecommunications: Fact Sheet |
Promoting increased cooperation and integration
The United States and Mexico seek to promote an integrated and efficient telecommunications environment through the HLED on both sides of our common border. This will yield important economic benefits for both countries.
Our two countries have increased cooperation to manage more efficiently our telecommunications systems along the border, supporting both nations’ goals of accelerating mobile broadband services. The United States also has provided legal and regulatory expertise to Mexico’s new telecommunications regulator to support Mexico’s goals of creating a competitive, market-based regulatory landscape more conducive for telecommunications investment.
Our goals
Our governments have pledged to connect interested parties from the U.S. information and communications technology (ICT) sector with Mexican Government officials to raise awareness of investment opportunities in this area and in particular facilitate U.S. corporate participation in the build out and operation of Mexico’s new 700MHz network. We will also cooperate to enhance telecommunications network security and resolve critical spectrum issues along our shared border in order to facilitate the expeditious implementation of services on both sides of the border.
With the HLED, we prosper together.
