UNT partnered with TechAmerica and the Dallas Regional Chamber in September to host the first United States/Mexico Technology Summit in Dallas — an opportunity for the business community to explore international trade issues and network with industry stakeholders from the two countries. The event gathered business and academic leaders, policymakers, government officials and technology advocates to learn more about Mexico’s advancing technology economy and ways the countries can compete together in the global economy. Topics included how to benefit from international product development, create a cross-cultural and technically skilled workforce, and better understand NAFTA, legal compliance issues and intellectual property laws.
