On April 8, 2026, we hosted our Economic Empowerment Summit at the UTSA Downtown Campus. We extend our sincere gratitude to our speakers, panelists, and all who attended to explore pathways to economic success.
Additionally, our on-site job fair was a great success, connecting San Antonio’s talented workforce with valuable opportunities. A special thank you to the recruiters and job seekers who made the event possible.
