I'm reading where Texas leads the nation in raw population growth. (The Houston Chronicle - 05/05/2021)
This same article says Texas has gained the most residents since 2010, entitling the state two new seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. Woo Hoo!
Now the simplest form of economic development - one of my main interests - is when people come spend money with us here in Houston rather than spending it anywhere else.
And we all remember when this was published: "For the past three years, Houston has created more new companies than any city in America." (The Economist - 06/23/2001)
So lets take advantage of Houston's skill sets when it comes to starting, growing, acquiring, or relocating a business and have people come to this great city for business ownership.
When you are thinking of starting (or growing) your business, give me a call or join me for breakfast any Wednesday at Corner Bakery Cafe, 7:30 to 8:30 AM and I'll share with you the things you need to be aware of and do so in the best way that you can absorb them.
Be sure to let me know you're coming.
You need not be in Houston, by the way. People connect with me from around the world via Skype.
Successful regard$,
(Not thinking of ever having a business? Pass this on to someone who is, please?)

"There exists within some people an inherent quality; an entrepreneurial exponent. With it, the likelihood of business success is dramatically increased. Without it, all the government funded small business development resources in the world won't yield a successful business."

Ruling over an estimated 80 million people from Chang'an, China, the most populous city in the world, Emperor Ai of the Tang Dynasty is deposed by Zhu Wen, a military governor, after famines, marauding bandit armies, and a collapsing political structure leaves the dynasty vulnerable.

With a claim to the papacy backed by the Holy Roman Emperor, Pietro Rainalducci is consecrated as Antipope Nicholas V in Rome. His competing claim to head the Catholic Church will fizzle after he's excommunicated by the reigning pope, and later "honourably imprisoned" for life

Gliding through the dark waters of the Gulf of Mexico, German submarine U-507 spots the SS Virginia just off the mouth of the Mississippi River, and torpedoes the 10,000-ton tanker, sinking her. Twenty-seven sailors perish in the audacious attack that will shock Americans.

Almost a year into their effort to isolate Germany's capital after WWII, Soviet occupiers reopen supply routes to West Berlin. Over 200,000 flights delivering food and fuel to the blockaded city from the US, UK, and others had severely undermined the USSR's expansionist plans

"Houston's greatest energy resource is entrepreneurial energy."

"Recognized as an industry leader and pioneer in small business incubation" by the National Business Incubation Association and as "One of Houston's core entrepreneurial groups" by the Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation and "Ranked the #1 new business development group in Houston" by Houston Proud!
We are a not-for-profit cooperative association of independent
business owners for market expansion, business development,
entrepreneurial education and professional growth.
We were created from a specific and priority research project of the Houston Chamber of Commerce in the late 1970's on the importance of start-up and emerging small businesses. We brought you Houston's first small business incubator, which became Texas' oldest, the first co-working space in Texas, the first Womens Business Center in the United States and the first Residency Incubator and first Virtual Accelerator Program in the World. Our clients have ranged from pre-start-ups to the largest companies in the United States! We clearly demonstrated that entrepreneurship could be taught, that business plans were not a requirement for a successful business, that women were starting businesses at a faster rate than men and that entrepreneurship was color-blind and gender neutral. Our start-ups have won virtually every award in Houston for business growth, some nationally, some even internationally and some of our established client companies are now household names in Houston. We operate entirely without grants, gifts, donations or public funding. We don't have our hand out and are NOT your tax dollars at work! We are totally self-sufficient!
We grow companies, build careers and advance ideas!
