"We are at the right place at the right time. Across Texas, momentum is building. Our state is investing in innovation, expanding industry, and shaping what competitiveness will look like in the decade ahead," said Elizabeth Suarez, President & CEO McAllen Chamber of Commerce and McAllen Economic Development Corporation. She added, "Here in McAllen, we are ready: more aligned, more focused, and more capable than ever before. This board retreat was about understanding why this moment matters, where Texas is headed, and how McAllen is positioned to lead." Thanks to the State of Texas and City of McAllen TX Government leaders who joined us to discuss our shared future. It was an opportunity to look ahead, explore the possibilities before us, review next year’s program of work, and align around the goals and measures that will drive McAllen forward. The outcome was powerful. Our board left energized by the collaboration with our government and community partners, proud to share bold ideas for McAllen’s growth, and confident in the path forward as we strengthen McAllen EDC’s structure and align both organizations for greater impact. At the end of the day, we hope everyone left with three things: • A clear picture of where the McAllen Chamber and McAllen EDC are headed • A sense of ownership in helping us get there • Pride in what this team is accomplishing for our community

ATTENTION: We will be closed Tuesday (10/28/25) for electrical work. Thank you for your patience & please share
