Under the slogan "We’re all entrepreneurs," 125 young people between the ages of 18 and 22, were sworn-in as members of the Puerto Rico Chamber of Commerce through its College Chapters committee, in an activity held in San Juan that seeks to develop an entrepreneurial attitude for the island’s economic well-being and social development.
The Puerto Rico Chamber of Commerce, through its public service campaign "Drive the business of your life," aimed at enhancing the island’s productivity, announced a collaboration agreement with Cemex, FirstBank and the Association of Private Colleges and Universities to develop a unified internship program for college students.
Puerto Rico needs to establish closer commercial ties with all countries throughout Latin America and the Caribbean by, among other things, playing up its importance as the gateway to the U.S. mainland, Ricardo Martinelli, president of the Republic of Panama said upon his arrival to the island Thursday.
