Description

San Francisco, Mar 29 (EFE).- The exodus of technology companies from California, which has been accelerated by the coronavirus pandemic, is significantly benefiting Texas and the US-Mexico border zone as a tech "hub" is being established there that takes advantage of the region's bilingual and bicultural characteristics.(CAMERA: Marc Arcas)STATEMENTS FROM OMAR SAUCEDO, SPOKESMAN FOR THE BRIDGE ACCELERATOR:"We have the participation of Mexican companies that are interested in connecting with the United States and vice versa, American companies interested in the Mexican market. We call that binational participation. We also have companies that are present in both countries, companies that began in the US and are known in Mexico or vice versa. The border between Texas and Juarez, Mexico has a unique population. The border divides us but if you look at a map you can see that there is no natural division, so there is an immediate social and business coexistence."
