Hidalgo County officials announced the marketing strategy last month, aiming to highlight the region’s assets: four seaports, seven airports, 13 international bridges, more than 100,000 university students and roughly 2.8 million to 3.

Alamo Angels opening chapter in the Rio Grande Valley Spamer, who leads the CEO group, said cities on both sides of the border have focused on marketing themselves until now.
