# LIVE: The Gateway Forum 2026 Panel Discussions | Pharr, TX | City of Pharr

The City of Pharr’s Gateway Forum 2026 hosted an international panel titled “Building Global Partnerships and Expanding Opportunities.” Speakers with backgrounds in logistics, international trade, investment, diplomacy, and customs discussed cross-border commerce between the United States and Mexico, supply-chain diversification, transportation bottlenecks, regional connectivity, and the role of infrastructure and U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) trade relationships. The transcript is substantially garbled, so the discussion’s details cannot be reliably reconstructed.

No procurement activity was identified: the transcript contains no discernible contract awards, solicitations, vendor selections, budget allocations, or spending-related motions or actions. The conversation appears to have focused on trade and regional economic cooperation rather than purchasing decisions.
