IN SHORT

Agustín Coppel Luken stands out for his professional accomplishments, keen sense of integrity, and heartfelt generosity. Holding family and business ethics to be the most important things in life, he strives to build strong bonds within family and society and yearns to see democracy, work, and opportunity for all in his country. “There are many Mexicos, and even in places of abject poverty, people are eager to listen and learn—and that is virtuous,” he says. “We need to create jobs and opportunities, because in Mexico people have a stunning capability to work, to create and to move forward.”
