Laura Gomez, CEO and founder of GV Group, has been named a recipient of the 'Excellence in Tax Strategy & Business Leadership Award' by Negocios Magazine. The award will be presented during the 2026 Top Entrepreneur of USA Awards ceremony, scheduled for Thursday, October 8, at the EB Hotel Miami. This recognition highlights Gomez's professional career, business leadership, and her specialized knowledge in developing tax strategies and business structures for entrepreneurs, investors, and companies aiming to establish, protect, and expand their operations in the United States.
Under Gomez's leadership, GV Group has developed a comprehensive approach that integrates various facets of business planning, particularly for international clients navigating the challenges of entering or growing in the U.S. market. The company's services encompass international tax planning, company formation and structuring, and tailored solutions for international investors and businesses, all designed to merge compliance, strategic foresight, and long-term growth.
Gomez emphasizes that today's entrepreneurs face a significant hurdle: not just achieving growth, but constructing companies with resilient foundations to sustain that growth over time. 'Today, entrepreneurs understand that simply opening a company is not enough. The real challenge is to build a structure that allows the business to grow with clarity, efficiency, and a long-term vision,' she said, reflecting on the evolving mindset of business founders in the United States.
