Chamber staff participated in a “Frontera Friday” meeting which featured Antonio Ortiz-Mena, the former Head of Section for Economic Affairs at the Mexican Embassy in Washington, D.C. Frontera Friday is a quarterly event organized by the Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies and the Urban Studies and Planning Program at UC San Diego to connect leaders from both sides of the border to the University and to serve as a platform for learning, networking and discussing opportunities to strengthen our binational region. The meeting focused on the binational maritime infrastructure and its importance to our regional economy, and included a visit to the Port of San Diego and the Port of Ensenada.
