This research examines strategies to enhance technology transfer from foreign companies to local businesses in Mexico to boost income and employment. Despite significant foreign direct investment (FDI), Mexico has seen limited improvements in wages and high-skill job opportunities. The study will find solutions to identified problems including the dominance of foreign firms, which contribute to these challenges. Using a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods, the research will collect data from 15 local and foreign companies, focusing on patent purchases, staff qualifications, and intellectual property charges. A Structural Equation Model (SEM) will be used to analyze the relationships between education, human capital, and firm performance in facilitating technology transfer. The findings will inform policy recommendations to improve local productivity, wages, and Mexico's competitiveness in the global economy. KEYWORDS JEL Codes: O33, F23, F21, O40, O47, J31, E24, J21.
