Jalisco economic development initiatives

Overview

The Jalisco Secretariat of Economic Development (Sedeco) has introduced several initiatives to stimulate regional business growth and professionalization.

Initial efforts focused on large-scale expansion through the ‘My First Million’ grant program, which offers significant funding—up to US$87,000 for the top winner—alongside consulting and networking for 30 high-potential companies. This coincided with the Expo Franquicias Guadalajara 2026, an event featuring over 150 brands designed to reinforce the state’s position in the franchise market.

Subsequent actions have shifted toward supporting smaller-scale operations through the ‘Mi Negocio Vende Más’ program. This initiative provides 32 hours of practical training to 100 micro-enterprises in the commerce and services sectors. The program utilizes the Jalisco Open Innovation and Development Platform (PLAi) to integrate artificial intelligence tools, helping small businesses manage cash flow and commercial positioning.
