Workforce Solutions for South Texas, in partnership with the City of Laredo, provided an exhibition of the industries which make up the South Texas Region, with a cross-section of 40 exhibitors from nearly every business sector including Manufacturing, Government-Public Safety, Finance, Construction, Hospitality, Healthcare, Restaurant, Transportation, Logistics, Education, Communications and more!
