In 1997 San Diego Dialogue established the Forum Fronterizo luncheon series to
provide civic leaders with a venue to examine opportunities and challenges in the San
Diego/Baja California metropolitan region.
The Forum has regularly attracted a distinguished audience of over 300 business,
government and academic leaders from both sides of the border, including the
region’s key elected officials and CEOs.

and inform a regional audience on the "state of the region."
