Texas Venture Fest: Rio Grande Valley Edition
Texas might be The Lone Star State, but we shouldn’t have lone star founders.
The Texas Venture Fest is the only truly "Texas-sized" day highlighting the ecosystem of startup support. More than 10 cities simultaneously host this statewide phenomenon, co-creating what is a record-breaking event for the country and proud moment for the state. Across our nation's biggest metropolis as well as small towns, 3,000+ Texans rally to see innovation flourish. When Texas thinks and acts as big as we are and in one concerted effort, it's our entrepreneurs (our states best problem solvers) who stand to benefit.
RGV EDITION: This is an event co-created by the Brownsville Community Improvement Corporation, Harlingen Economic Development Corporation, and the UTRGV Entrepreneurship & Commercialization Center. More updates regarding the RGV activities, will be published here soon.
TEXAN'S CHOICE AWARDS: This year's event registration asks for your favorite investor, startup, and community leader for the Texan's Choice Awards— the "People's Choice Awards" for our statewide innovation community. Learn more about this here. Alternatively, if you need additional time to thoughtfully make suggestions, proceed with registration and upon submission we automatically email a form to complete at your convenience.
