Global Entrepreneurship Week is an international movement that introduces more people to the possibilities of starting and growing a business. Each November, partners in about 200 countries and territories host events, competitions and campaigns in their own communities.
GEW McAllen is the Rio Grande Valley’s part of that week. The McAllen Chamber of Commerce brings together universities, banks, government programs and local businesses so entrepreneurs at every stage can find what they need next.
