Greetings!

Another month has gone by. With the memories of Super Bowl LI still fresh in our minds,Texas is already at the start of a new big event: The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, the world's largest livestock show and richest regular-season rodeo. While Houston is polishing their boots , we would like to draw your attention to a few items. Last week we had to say goodbye to our interns, but the good news is: there are very interesting internship vacancies on our website. We have a new item in our trading post and Dutch RDS shares some of their valuable insights on doing business in Texas. Further we have a special item on the Dallas-Fort Worth region. For our series on Renewable Energy in Texas, we have an article on the market for wind energy and we hosted a luncheon to further encourage a regional focus in the Gulf Coast in the offshore market. Last but not least: it’s time for SWSX Austin. Read about all the items below and click on the links for extra information on our website.
