When Puerto Rico assembled a sensible tax-incentive-in return-for-jobs-program a talented Puerto Rican attorney, CPA, CEO and entrepreneur was called in to set up everything right. The loss of the 936 system that had boosted education, research, and employment through a thriving pharmaceutical cluster was a heavy blow to good paying jobs in Puerto Rico. As Secretary of Economic Development and Commerce of Puerto Rico he has brought in over a thousand of the brightest business minds from the greatest 1st world service economy — The United States of America. The Secretary’s vast management experience began early in the family furniture manufacturing business. This has been followed with executive positions as President of the Economic Development Bank of Puerto Rico, CEO of both Marvel and Bohio International as well as Board seats in W Holdings, Assurant of Puerto Rico, and the Government Development Bank. I am privileged to present one of our very own; distinguished Magna Cum Laude UPR business and law school alumni; The Honorable Secretary Alberto Bacó Bagué.
