About this Event

Start your RGV Startup Week with a morning you won’t forget — featuring a powerful fireside chat with Vicente Fox Quesada, former President of Mexico and a global voice for leadership, innovation, and change.

In this insightful conversation, President Fox will share his experiences on resilience, leadership, and navigating political and economic uncertainty — especially relevant to entrepreneurs and changemakers working in border communities. His unique perspective offers both inspiration and practical insight for those building businesses in the Rio Grande Valley and beyond.

The conversation will be moderated by Berenice Garcia, Rio Grande Valley reporter for The Texas Tribune, and will spark thoughtful dialogue on how cross-border collaboration and innovation can thrive — even in the most challenging times.

A week-long series of events bringing together founders, creatives, investors, students, and ecosystem builders from across the region.
