A Trade Mission to Boost Vital Arizona-Mexico Economic Ties


Jason LeVecke is the managing director of BIIC Solutions, where he serves the strategic consulting needs of public- and private-sector clients in areas such as project management, marketing, and contract and lease negotiations. A leading figure in the business world, Jason LeVecke has received accolades such as the Developer of the Year Award and the Founder’s Award. 

In 2017, LeVecke represented the Arizona business community in ways that improved trans-border relationships. He served as part of a delegation that included nearly 70 entrepreneurial and political leaders who brought attention to the vital Arizona-Mexico relationship.

Traveling to Mexico City and Guanajuato, the group promoted stronger economic ties at a critical time when the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) is being re-evaluated and brought a message of strong support for US-Mexico relations. 

The delegation was noteworthy for its bipartisan composition, with the Arizona House of Representatives standing firmly behind the trade mission. The effort was described as part of an advocacy push that will help to create a regular cross-border dialogue and trade delegations that sustain pro-growth policies and constructive relationships.
