VAZQUEZ, Miguel Ángel  e  BOCANEGRA, Carmen. The Aerospace Industry in Mexico: Characteristics and Challenges in Sonora. Prob. Des [online]. 2018, vol.49, n.195, pp.153-176. ISSN 0301-7036.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iiec.20078951e.2018.195.63183.

The objective of this paper is to expand the body of knowledge about the situation of and challenges facing the aerospace industry in the state of Sonora, Mexico. To do so, various interviews were conducted with company officials who shared results like the following: the industry has moved toward districts that offer the best conditions to operate; the march of technological flexibility in processes calls for a review of how institutions of higher education in the state are training human capital. Moreover, despite ranking in the country's top five states in aerospace production, the integration of productive value chains still leaves much to be desired, and is concentrated at Level 2 of the supply chains.

Palavras-chave : High-tech industries; productive processes; supply and value chains; technological innovation; training; skilled labor.
