On Monday May 5th, the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce was pleased to welcome the Consul of Guatemala in San Francisco, the Office of Economic and Workforce Development, and the University of San Francisco to successfully host Tech Bridge San Francisco- Guatemala, a dynamic forum that strengthened global cooperation in the technology sector by bringing together leaders from both regions.
