Insights Unplugged: The State of Entrepreneurship

Insights Unplugged is eBridge's fireside chat series. Each session brings people from the private and public sectors who know the local economy firsthand into a candid discussion, followed by Q&A and time to network over lunch.

This edition looks at the state of entrepreneurship in Brownsville and the Rio Grande Valley: who is starting businesses, what is holding founders back, what challenges they face, and what support is available to them right now.

Open to business owners, founders, students, educators, and anyone invested in the local startup community. The event is free. Please register so we can plan lunch accordingly: https://luma.com/in26

This is an official Global Entrepreneurship Week 2026 activity hosted by BCIC at the eBridge Center for Business & Commercialization.
