San Luis Potosí stands out as a fundamental pillar of Mexican manufacturing, consolidating significant employment linked to global supply chains. Its economy is deeply integrated with external markets, where the automotive industry and component production account for the majority of value added and international sales. This position underscores the state’s structural dependence on the export sector, particularly in the face of moderation observed at the national level. The relevance of this article to the open data movement lies in how public statistics, such as those from INEGI, shed light on regional economic dependence. By freely accessing detailed indicators on employment and foreign trade, society can better understand the vulnerabilities and strengths of local production models. The availability of these data fosters accountability and enables critical analysis of whether government policies aimed at attracting investment are effective in the long term. To sustain this dynamism, the state must address structural challenges such as infrastructure and energy. Transparency in data allows for an assessment of whether international trade conditions and labor stability align with sustainable development. Thus, open data not only inform but also serve as essential tools for designing strategies that ensure economic resilience in the face of global fluctuations and guarantee specialized jobs in the future.
