Ensenada EDC Makes Waves at Paris Air Show 2025

Paris might be famous for love and croissants, but this week, it’s full of wings, rockets, and investment deals. That’s because the Paris Air Show 2025 is in full swing—and Ensenada showed up ready to fly.

Mexico’s delegation kicked things off with a cozy welcome from the Ambassador of Mexico in France, the Honorable Blanca Elena Jiménez Cisneros. Among the guests was Mario A. Peregrina, president of Ensenada EDC, there to share Baja’s aerospace potential with the world.

Not Just Another Booth at a Fancy Expo

Peregrina and the team aren’t in Paris just to smile for photos. On Day 1, they met with Céline Carlot of Nord France Invest to talk business. Both sides explored ways to strengthen cooperation between France and Baja California.

Why? Because Ensenada isn’t just sun and seafood. It’s rapidly growing into a serious contender for aerospace manufacturing, nearshoring, and tech expansion. Its proximity to the U.S., skilled workforce, and industrial parks make it a perfect fit for companies looking to move closer to home.

What’s in It for Ensenada?

This isn’t just another ribbon-cutting. Events like the Paris Air Show connect real opportunities to local talent and companies. When Peregrina shakes hands in France, he’s opening doors for Ensenada engineers, students, and businesses.

Plus, as companies rethink long supply chains, Baja becomes even more attractive. With support from ProBaja Trade & Investment, the region is selling more than location—it’s offering a vision.

Where to Catch the Action?

You can find Ensenada EDC at the Mexican Pavilion – Hall 3, Booth F136 through June 25. The booth highlights Baja California’s top investment projects, and yes—there’s space to talk business over wine.

So what’s the big deal? For starters, Baja’s aerospace sector could see more jobs, more infrastructure, and more partnerships. Local universities and tech centers may even attract new research and training programs.

More investment means stronger communities, better roads, and—let’s be honest—more reasons for your teenager to stay in school and become an engineer.

Say Bonjour to Baja

It’s not every day that Ensenada makes headlines in Paris. But here we are. Thanks to solid preparation and some high-level charm, Baja’s making waves in the sky.
