Entrepreneurial Thinkers with Rob Ryan

Is Mexico leaping ahead of history by electing it’s first Female President this summer? Is History repeating itself, or are we making real political progress in Mexico? If you are curious about our North American neighbors, the 12th largest economy in the world, or cross-border economic and cultural realities, please step into the heart of Mexican politics via this deep dive conversation with Publisher of The Mexican Political Economist newsletter, Alex Gonzalez Ormerod, as we unravel the unprecedented emergence of women in key political roles. Alex brings his long and specific experiences as an editorial journalist, political writer and researcher, living in Mexico City, to Rob and his analysis of the historic election that is paving the way for Mexico's first woman president. They examine the role innovative or entrepreneurial thinking plays within the intricate power dynamics of Mexico’s political parties. From activism to challenging the status quo, we examine the journey towards gender equality amidst the backdrop of social issues like femicide, corruption and economic inequality. Join us as we navigate the landscape of Mexican politics, exploring the strides made, the hurdles faced, and the potential for transformative change in one of the Americas regions biggest and most important nations.
