The region stretching from San Antonio to Austin is experiencing frenetic development, exponential population growth and increased economic significance. That brings opportunity and challenges.
Join us in Austin and online at 9 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 29, for a conversation on the interconnected future of Central Texas, Texas’ next hot spot for growth and development. We’ll talk through the buffet of tax and regulatory incentives that are driving the favorable business climate from San Antonio to Austin, how area affordability is impacting population change in New Braunfels and San Marcos, the impact growth is having along I-35 and on local roads, and what is both exciting elected officials and giving them pause.
Moderated by Henry Cisneros, former mayor of San Antonio and former U.S. secretary of Housing and Urban Development, the panel will feature Will Conley, former CEO of the Greater San Marcos Partnership; Ed Latson, CEO of Opportunity Austin; Jonathan Packer, president and CEO, Greater New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce; and Jenna Saucedo-Herrera, president and CEO, greater: SATX.
This in-person event will be livestreamed on this page for virtual attendees and will be available to watch on demand afterward.
