In mid‑July, Toluca’s mayor announced the opening of applications for the second cohort of the Municipal School of Entrepreneurship (EMET), outlining registration deadlines and a September start date. By the end of July, other Mexican municipalities were highlighting the outcomes of similar programs: Ixtapaluca celebrated the graduation of its 2023‑2026 CECyTEM cohort, while Chihuahua hosted a free jewelry‑making workshop under the “Sabadito Emprendedor” scheme. Together the snapshots show a broader rollout of municipal‑level education and entrepreneurship efforts across several states, moving from program launch to participant graduation and community‑based skill workshops.
