Tijuana is known as a city full of opportunities for those who are looking for a better future and to achieve their dreams doing what they're really passionate about. A clear example of this is entrepreneurs, who make an effort every day to promote their products and services to the entire community.
Against this backdrop, Emprendedor Fest Tijuana has played a fundamental role throughout its 15 editions promoting local consumption and positioning itself as the region's most popular and outstanding event.
New surprises at the 16th edition of Emprendedor Fest Tijuana
