The Mexican energy industry is set for transformation after President Enrique Peña Nieto signed into law the reform’s secondary legislation in August. Join us for the first major policy address in the United States by one of the top Mexican officials leading this reform.  

How will the reform and the new laws remake the Mexican energy industry? Are the reforms on track heading into 2015? What are the implications for the United States and North America as a whole?

This event follows two publications in step with the reform process and written by the Adrienne Arsht Latin America Center’s nonresident senior energy fellow, David Goldwyn, Mexico’s Energy Reform: Ready to Launch (August 2014) and Mexico Rising: Comprehensive Energy Reform at Last? (December 2013).
