ROBSTOWN, Texas, June 14, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Following her address at the Robstown Area Development Commission's 23rd Annual Banquet, Pinnacle Group CEO & Founder Nina Vaca was presented with a "Keynote Speaker" award and a formal proclamation, declaring June 13 as "Nina Vaca Day" in her honor, by Robstown Mayor Mandy Barrera.

The Texas mayor cited Vaca's impressive list of accomplishments as well as her tireless efforts to provide a positive and lasting impact on the Hispanic community in Texas and across the country.

Among her many roles, Vaca has served as a Presidential Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship, as well as having recently been elected to the Council on Foreign Relations – where she works to establish global U.S. ties through business.

I look forward to continuing with that mission and am grateful to have the support of business leaders throughout Texas."
