In July 2026, San Luis Potosí hosted the Auto Supply Chain & Logistics Summit to promote nearshoring, digital transformation, and expanded logistics infrastructure. This was followed by an Automotive Cluster executive meeting where officials and the National Auto Parts Industry emphasized the region’s strategic location and $761.8 million investment inflow, calling for increased regional content and electromobility ahead of the T-MEC review. Concurrently, the Consejo Potosino de Ciencia y Tecnología launched a fully funded technology-entrepreneurship program targeting AI, fintech, biotech, and cleantech.

By August 2026, efforts to bolster the sector expanded through new local initiatives. During the Capital Government's Supply Fair, Mayor Enrique Galindo Ceballos and the San Luis Potosí Automotive Cluster signed an agreement to facilitate certification processes for local companies. This program, led by Cluster President Alberto Reyna, aims to help 20 selected companies meet national and international standards, allowing them to integrate into supply chains across the central and Bajío regions of Mexico. The municipal government will provide resources to cover a portion of these certification costs to enhance local competitiveness.
