In this episode, we have a great discussion with Prosper West President and CEO Ramiro "Ram" Gonzales about his experience at UTSA, what led to identifying his true passion, and ultimately leading Prosper West San Antonio. The mission of Prosper West San Antonio is to foster economic development, promote the development and redevelopment of real estate within its target area, create viable urban communities, and preserve the character, culture, and history of the Westside. Economic prosperity on the Westside of San Antonio requires a holistic approach to the entire Westside ecosystem including real estate, small business, infrastructure, workforce, placemaking, promotion, etc. Our approach is to maximize existing assets, remove barriers to opportunities, and to close system gaps in each of these areas. Our Impact Committees, made up of passionate and proud members of the community, help to identify these opportunities and move them forward in partnership with our board, staff, and other community partners.
