Jalisco and Nuevo Leon maintain a historical competition for being the second most important city in the country, same that goes from the economic to the sports and the academic.

Fernando Franco, partner of Puente Labs, a company that links technology ventures in Latin America with financing and accelerators in San Francisco, United States, explained that at least in the Silicon Valley environment, the name of Guadalajara sounds more than the Monterrey .

This is due to the decisions that the Jalisco government has taken to promote the region as a pole of technological development, something in which Nuevo Leon is being left behind.

"The future is positive, but Jalisco is taking precautions and initiatives that are not being seen in Nuevo León, at least from the perspective of Silicon Valley," he said.

"In Silicon Valley Guadalajara is sounding a lot. The Mexican government has just announced a new visa, a technological visa so that people who want to come to work in Mexico can do it in less than 24 hours, but the announcement was made with Jalisco, "he said.
