Mexican Senate and SwissCham Mexico Chart Joint Health Agenda Toward 2030, Digi Mart USA News: The Swiss-Mexican Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SwissCham Mexico) and the Economy Committee of the Mexican Senate successfully held the “Public Health Dialogue: Public-Private Partnerships to Build a Common Agenda Toward 2030.” The aim is to establish a collaborative roadmap toward a stronger, more equitable and resilient health system.
The event served as the closing of the 2026 Public Health Program, an initiative developed by SwissCham Mexico together with the Swiss School of Public Health (SSPH+) and the Swiss Chambers in Latin America. In Mexico’s case, this edition brought together prominent Mexican public officials after they completed their training cycle.

Judith Mendez, Executive Director of the Center for Economic and Budget Research (CIEP), exchanged perspectives alongside representatives of the Swiss industry from SwissCham’s health and innovation committee.
The discussions addressed three areas: effective access to health care (solutions to close access gaps); health investment with efficiency (strategies for medium-term resource planning with efficient investment); and health innovation (collaboration models to accelerate the adoption of innovation in health care).
“Collaboration between the public sector and private enterprise is indispensable in the face of current challenges. From SwissCham, we contribute innovative solutions and share Swiss best practices to strengthen Mexico’s health ecosystem, clearly benefiting patients,” said Dr.
Javier Luna, President of SwissCham’s Health and Innovation Committee and Director of Access and Medical Affairs at Roche Diagnostics.
The day concluded with a ceremonial act led by Senator Emmanuel Reyes Carmona, President of the Senate Economy Committee, and Joao Carapeto, General Manager of Roche Diagnostics, to recognize the efforts of the participating officials and reaffirm joint lines of work.
