Community leaders serve as mentors and evangelist role. They provide experience, insight, and connections to business opportunities and careers for graduates and the startups. Leaders also set the vision and open/inclusive culture that inspires the next generation to invest in a high tech career and in the local economy which attracts new business partnerships and recruitment of high tech into the region.

With increased supply of high tech labor force and startups the local infrastructure and resources play a pivotal role to enable growth. Code RGV represents and seeks to provide gigabit internet, venture capital, and continuing education to our region by partnering with municipalities and businesses.

A restrictive and non collaborative community plays a zero-sum game. No winners, no losers, and no economic development. At Code RGV, we believe that progress and innovation is made with collaboration of others and inclusion to all ideas, beliefs, or experiences to make the best businesses, products, and services. We strive to partner with all municipalities, EDCs, & Chambers of Commerce to help build better communities.

Our region’s graduates, startups, and businesses need to be valued and compensated accordingly. At Code RGV, we continue to work with businesses and municipalities so that their beliefs are aligned with ours: we have high caliber professional individuals and businesses.
