Biography
Former President of Mexico (2000-2006) Vicente Fox is a visionary leader with a deep understanding of the contemporary geopolitical landscape and the role of business in the developing world. When elected to the presidency of Mexico in 2000, President Fox broke the stranglehold that the ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party had held on to the State for seven decades. A charismatic reformer, he is credited as playing a vital role in Mexico’s democratization, and with strengthening the country’s economy. President Fox’s visionary ideas, when paired with his engaging storytelling, inspire audiences from business leaders to policymakers by offering unique insights into international relations, economic development, and the future of global markets.
After leaving office in 2006, President Fox and his wife founded Centro Fox, a non-profit dedicated to discovering, exercising, and harnessing the leadership qualities we all have inside of us. The non-profit is now housed at the Vicente Fox Center of Studies, Library, and Museum in San Cristobal, Mexico. President Fox has shared his vision for the future of democracy with hosts including the Ogun State Investors Forum, The Latino Coalition, and the UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School, who said, “We had a wonderful event with President Fox. It was a standing room only audience, plus we filled up three overflow rooms!”

Building Bridges: Fixing the Immigration Issue and Strengthening U.S.-Mexico Relations
Immigration reform has long been a priority for President Fox, who, during his time in office, worked with then-President George W. Bush to negotiate immigration policy. Since leaving office, President Vicente Fox continues to emphasize the importance of immigration reform with the goal of building bridges and why America must establish sensible pathways for citizenship for undocumented immigrants. In his speech, President Fox addresses why immigration reform is crucial for not just America and Mexico, but for the global community at large: “Mexico and other nations consider U.S. immigration reform important because we know our citizens will continue to migrate in search of job opportunities and a better quality of life, with freedom and respect for human rights.”
