"At Houston 2035, we're aiming to spotlight the incredible innovation ecosystem that's grown in Houston, which is tackling some of the biggest challenges on the planet, and which far too few people outside of the region know about," said Xconomy founder and editor in chief Robert Buderi. "We're excited to bring together leading innovators from the area's top industries, together with keynoters from outside the region, who we hope will inspire others to explore new horizons and ensure the bright and innovative future that we know is in store for both Houston and Texas."
Dr. Robert C. Robbins, President and CEO of Texas Medical Center, agrees: "Our goal at Texas Medical Center is not only to cultivate innovation and entrepreneurship in Houston, but to provide the support and tools that will allow industry visionaries to remain in our region. Acting as a sponsor for Houston 2035 is the perfect opportunity to share our mission and promote our city as an industry leader."
