What does Fort Worth need to keep growing—and what should the business community prioritize next?
On August 27, we’re bringing together business owners, community leaders, economic development partners, and state legislators for an evening built around one idea: our economic strategy is stronger when we build it together.
The FWHCC Economic Strategy Forum will move from community voice → data → action.
🤝 YOUR VOICE: We’ll start by hearing directly from the community and gathering feedback through our economic development survey.
📊 THE DATA: Texas 2036 will share The Next Generation of the Texas Miracle, helping us understand the workforce, education, and economic gaps Texas must address to continue growing.
🏛️ WHAT’S NEXT: State Representatives Giovanni Capriglione, Ramon Romero, and Terry Meza will join Brooke Goggans for a bipartisan conversation about the next legislative session and the issues businesses should have on their radar.
And we’ll use what we learn to help inform the FWHCC’s legislative priorities and future economic development work.
If you’re a business owner, employer, community partner, or simply care about the economic future of Fort Worth, this is a room you’ll want to be in.
📅 Thursday, August 27 | 6–8 PM
📍 Printed Threads | Fort Worth
Come with your perspective. Leave with a better understanding of where we’re going—and help us build what comes next.
