Zapopan is a city of over 1 million located in the central Mexican state of Jalisco. It is part of the greater Guadalajara region and is home to several well know cultural landmarks. Zapopan is one of the fastest growing municipalities in Mexico. Recently, Zapopan has been dubbed the “Silicon Valley of Mexico,” due to the number of international firms and foreign direct investment (FDI) in high technology production. Industrial activity has evolved, in part, due to the efficient urban infrastructure, communications, transport, skilled labor, and cutting edge technology.

Zapopan is home to some of the best higher education institutions in the state, including the University of Guadalajara, the Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara (UAG), Instituto Tecnológico de Estudios Superiores de Occidente, Universidad Pamamericana (UP), Instituto Tecnológico de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey as well as other universities and technological colleges.
