An Overview of the 2019 Texas Environmental Summit
Presented by Environmental Business International, Inc., publisher of Environmental Business Journal
Co-hosted with regional partners Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP and 7 Mile Advisors
A Market Overview from EBI will present perspective and discussion on:
Oil & gas and petrochemicals have long been the dominant players in the Gulf Coast economy and while their fortune waxes and wanes, the two sectors still remains the most influential force on economic cycles and demand for environmental services in the region.
West Texas has become one of the world’s largest and highest growing centers of renewable energy development and the permitting, design and construction business continues to boom, but now long-term operation & maintenance of wind assets and grid modernization and storage options are creating opportunities for environmental companies as well.
Hurricanes and unpredictable short- and long-term weather patterns threaten private and public assets and citizens around the region and consultants, planners, designers and contractors are already building new practices in response, resilience and adaptation.
The Texas Environmental Industry Summit convened a 1-day meeting of 50-60 senior executives in the Texas and Gulf Coast environmental industry to discuss business & market trends, policy & market drivers, and financial & strategic issues from a national, regional and state perspective.
