  • Rethinking Mexico and Its Ties to Silicon Valley Neighboring Nation’S Young Venture Capital Industry Is Growing Rapidly
    Opinion: Rethinking Mexico and its ties to Silicon Valley Neighboring nation’s young venture capital industry is growing rapidly Sean Randolph – July 3, 2021 When Americans think about Mexico many things may come to mind — immigration, cartels or perhaps beaches. Technology and innovation are probably not on that list but reflect that a new reality is taking hold across Mexico — led by investors, entrepreneurs and leaders in states and cities — that is moving Mexico onto the map of U.S. technology and innovation partners. In this transformation, Silicon Valley’s role looms large. Here’s why. Mexico’s young venture capital industry is growing rapidly. From $55 million in 2010, annual investment has grown to more than $1 billion. Softbank’s $5 billion Innovation Fund, created several years ago to invest in Latin America, was a turning point that put Mexico on the global venture map. Now the country boasts unicorns and fast-growing startups. More are on the way, supported by universities, accelerators and by large tech and startup conferences such as Talent Land in Guadalajara and INCmty on Monterrey. This activity is concentrated in a number of states and cities that are strengthening their base in R&D and are working hard to build local innovation systems. The most noteworthy are Tijuana, Juarez, Monterrey, Mexico City and Guadalajara, as well as Merida (in Yucatan) and states in the central El Bajio region. Each has distinct features: • Mexico City, home to the national government, top universities, leading companies and most of its venture capital industry is building its digital capacity and benefits from sheer size.

  • Figure 1. Regional Location Map
    Figure 1. Regional Location Map - 2 - INTRODUCTION SCOPE AND PURPOSE OF THE PLAN The updated San Ysidro Community Plan (Plan) is a comprehensive revision of the original plan adopted in 1974 and includes the urbanized portion of the Tijuana River Valley. The update was authorized at the City Council budget hearings of July 1987 and work on the project began in December of that year. The Planning Department, with the assistance of the San Ysidro Planning and Development Group, has studied San Ysidro’s major issues and challenges and has developed alternative solutions to realize the community’s potential. Included in the Plan is a set of recommendations based upon those alternative solutions to guide the development and the redevelopment of the San Ysidro community. Formal adoption of the revised Plan requires that the Planning Commission and City Council follow the same procedure of holding public hearings as was followed in adopting the original community plan. Adoption of the Plan also requires an amendment of the Progress Guide and General Plan (General Plan) for the City, which will occur at the first regularly scheduled General Plan amendment hearing following adoption of this Plan. Once the Plan is adopted, any amendments, additions or deletions will require that the Planning Commission and City Council follow City Council Policy 600-35 regarding the procedure for Plan amendments. Although this Plan sets forth procedures for implementation, it does not establish new regulations or legislation, nor does it rezone property. The rezoning and design controls recommended in the Plan will be enacted concurrently with Plan adoption.

  • Kumeyaay Cultural Landscapes of Baja California's Tijuana River
    Journal of California and Great Basin Anthropology | Vol. 28, No. 2 (2008) | pp. 127–151 Kumeyaay Cultural Landscapes of Baja California’s Tijuana River Watershed LYNN H. GAMBLE MICHAEL WILKEN-ROBERTSON Department of Anthropology, San Diego State University, 5500 Campanile Drive, San Diego, CA 92182 The cultural landscape of the Kumeyaay living in the Tijuana River Watershed of Baja California embodies the sacred, symbolic, economic, and mythological views of a people who have lived in the region for centuries. Recent research on this region that integrates ethnographic, ethnohistorical, and (to a lesser degree) archaeological information reveals a landscape that is alive and imbued with power, sustenance, and legend—a dynamic construct that reflects both changing Kumeyaay relationships with the land and the group’s continuity with the past. Sacred sites, peaks, transformed rocks, magic boulders, and other geographic features associated with oral traditions populate the landscape. Ecosystems and areas of historic significance represent direct links with generations of ancestors and are still layered with meaning in the minds of descendants. For us the mountains, the rocks, the trees: all this is something important. As my grandfather used to say, this ground is the floor for your feet, the rocks and hills are your walls, the sky is your roof and the sun your light1 [Josefina López Meza, personal communication 2004]. ultural landscapes are an elusive topic All individuals and communities, not just the C for archaeologists, especially those who work in Kumeyaay, give symbolic meanings to the places they regions of the Californias and the Great Basin where inhabit: monumental architecture is rare or non-existent.
