About this Event
TBIC is pleased to host its 10th Anniversary Transatlantic Business and Investment Conference in Houston, TX, on Tuesday, September 1, 2026.
The TBIC Transatlantic Business & Investment Conference returns to Texas for its tenth anniversary edition. After hosting our first conference in Frisco, we are excited to celebrate this milestone year in Houston, one of the most dynamic and diverse economic regions in the United States. The 2026 conference will once again bring together economic developers, European companies, industry experts, and members of the TBIC network for a full day dedicated to foreign direct investment, transatlantic cooperation, and practical insights for communities and businesses alike.
Attendees can look forward to high-level speakers, updates on current FDI trends, and opportunities to engage directly with European firms exploring U.S. expansion. The Hotel ZaZa in Houston’s Museum District provides a vibrant setting for networking, knowledge exchange, and strategic discussions.
