Querétaro has become one of the most important entities for the industrial sector in the Bajío and in the country, managing to stand out due to its level of competitiveness and the attraction of investments that it has registered in recent years.

According to the 2022 State Competitiveness Index of the Mexican Institute for Competitiveness (IMCO), the state managed to rank fourth at the national level, which, although it means a setback compared to the position it held in 2021, continues to place Querétaro within the top five.
