This week, Urban Land Institute Austin NEXT hosted a lunch panel focused on The Future of Economic Development, exploring how economic incentives can help shape equitable, sustainable growth and examining the City of Austin's evolving economic development strategy.

We were honored to have one of our team members serve as moderator, guiding a thoughtful discussion with an outstanding panel of industry and community leaders: Opportunity Austin President & CEO, Susan Davenport, TXP, Inc. President, Jon Hockenyos, and City of Austin Government Economic Development Office Assistant City Manager, Dr. Eric A. Johnson.

Thank you to ULI Austin NEXT for bringing together leaders from across the public and private sectors to share insights on the opportunities, challenges, and strategies that will help drive Austin's continued growth and success.

We were thrilled to be a sponsor for the Downtown Austin 2026 Future of Downtown event at the Paramount Theatre last night. Congratulations to the Downtown Austin Alliance team on such a successful evening celebrating the partnerships, progress, and future of Downtown Austin. We’re grateful to be part of such a vibrant and growing community!
