Launch event
Four years after Mexico overhauled its telecommunication and broadcasting sectors with a major legal and regulatory reform, a new OECD Review assesses the impact on communication markets, businesses and households. It recommends further measures for the telecommunication and broadcasting sectors to build on this progress and ensure Mexico reaps maximum benefits from the digital transformation.
Gabriela Ramos, the OECD Chief of Staff, G20 Sherpa and Special Advisor to the Secretary-General, presented the OECD Telecommunication and Broadcasting Review of México 2017 along with Andrew Wyckoff, Director of Science, Technology and Innovation, OECD, Communications and Transport Minister Gerardo Ruiz Esparza and Federal Telecommunications Institute President Commissioner Gabriel Oswaldo Contreras Saldívar on 31 August 2017 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Mexico City.
