BROWNSVILLE, Texas - The CIL Group has provided the Rio Grande Guardian with some exclusive photos from the two recent American Chamber Mexico (AmCham) events in Brownsville.
The first event was a half day conference held at the Brownsville Events Center. It was titled: US-Mexico Leaders’ Summit: Binational High-Level Dialogue.
Among those giving the opening remarks were Brownsville Mayor John Cowen and Roberto Velasco from Mexico’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Among the guest speakers were Adriana Cruz, executive director of economic development and tourism for Gov. Greg Abbott’s Office, Glenn Hamer, president and CEO of the Texas Association of Business, U.S. Rep. Vicente Gonzalez, state Sen. Morgan LaMantia, and Joaquin Spamer, president of CIL.
This event was not open to the public or media.
The second event was an evening reception held at IBC Bank-Brownsville. This was open to the public and the media.
Spamer said he wanted to introduce AmCham to the Rio Grande Valley.
“AmCham is 106 years old and it’s a very well organized, very professional entrepreneurial organization in Mexico,” Spamer said. “I’m just proud that they accepted me a couple of years back as a member, and I was invited to become a board member in the Northeast chapter in Monterrey last year.”
Spamer said he “wanted to do something” for AmCham in South Texas.
“I think that the last two days were something spectacular. AmCham is very powerful. We got some very big names (to come to the summit). Adriana Cruz came to the event. A lot of different local businessmen, local mayors (came also). We are very grateful that Senator LaMantia was there, (and Congressman) Vicente Gonzalez. He’s a very good friend of mine, a very good friend of business. And we had a great event.”
