Private Competitiveness Council
The Private Competitiveness Council is a private, non-profit organization whose purpose is to propose, promote and contribute to the design and formulation of public policies and strategies to improve the country's competitiveness in order to increase the wealth and well-being of the population. The Council acts in a framework for public-private partnerships as an articulator and interlocutor between the public sector, the private sector, academia and other organizations interested in promoting competitiveness and related public policies. The Council was created in 2006 by a group of entrepreneurs and universities interested in proposing and promoting initiatives that improve the country's competitiveness, in the face of the Free Trade Agreement with the United States. Currently, the Council is made up of more than 30 national and multinational companies, which belong to different sectors of the national economy and are present in several regions of the country.
