The construction process will begin in the second week of October 2016, and developers look forward to opening in the first half of 2017.

Marquez Marquez explained that although some of the investors are yet to be confirmed, one of the firms that will be installed in Sky Plus Park, is a drone company.

In that sense, Carlos Puente said: “We want to attract Tier-1 companies (Turbine, Fuselages or Landing train manufacturers) as an anchor to engage other businesses”.

The Sky Plus Park offers the following attractions:

  • A bonded warehouse, which will facilitate air-cargo transportation
  • The boundary with the Bajio International Airport (AIG)
  • Railroad and highway infrastructure
