THE OFFICE
​
The NMTHEC was formed as a MOU between the City of Albuquerque and the University of New Mexico to deepen bilateral ties between the State of New Mexico and Mexico in key areas such as trade and education. The NMTHEC of Mexico City is staffed by experts in the fields of international business development and higher education and is strategically located in Mexico City; the country’s financial, economic, and political capital. The Center was inaugurated in 2014 by then City of Albuquerque Mayor Richard J. Berry, University of New Mexico President Robert G. Frank, U.S. Ambassador to Mexico Anthony Wayne, Mexican Secretary of Foreign Affairs José Meade, and Mexico City Economic Development Secretary Salomón Chertorivski.
