A group of Houston business professionals, led by members from Briggs & Veselka Company, MetLife and JPMorgan Chase, announced the formation of Gateway to Houston on Tuesday. "A lot of people want to find new opportunities and adventures in Houston. However, it's hard to get everything done in a new place. Gateway to Houston will be a one-stop shop for helping foreign companies and individuals coming to Houston and Texas with any business and individual needs," said Alice Chen (standing), functional manager of MetLife who is also congressman Al Green's Asian Liaison.
