During this event, they shared their experiences and challenges in an open dialogue. Future economic development plans were also discussed, emphasizing the importance of the trade relationship between Mexico and the United States.

Rodriguez concludes: "In the Rio Grande Valley, we are more than 1.5 million inhabitants, and we jointly promote the arrival of new investments. Even during the pandemic, we witnessed industrial growth, and we know that this growth will be even greater in the future. Our relationship with Mexico is strong, and we are willing to support all the needs that investors may have."
