During the XIII Pacific Alliance Summit, held on July 24th, 2018 in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, by presidential mandate, the Global Chains of Value and Productive Linkages Technical Group was formed with the aim of promoting the development of productive linkages between the four countries and improving the insertion of the mechanism into the regional and global value chains.

This includes tangible and intangible value-added activities, such as research and development (R & D), design, production, distribution, marketing and support to the final consumer. Therefore, global value chains consist of cross-border and inter-company networks that bring a good or service to the market.
According to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in the year 2019, it is estimated that 2/3 of world trade is carried out through the Global Value Chains. In this sense, the PA seeks to take advantage of this trade through the generation of productive linkages, in order to enable the four member countries to benefit from the GVCs.
