The founder of the elite business network YTexas interviews eighteen CEOs and other business leaders on the growth benefits of the Lone Star State. In recent years, hundreds of companies have relocated to the Lone Star State. But they don't just move—they stay, grow, expand, and tell others to join them. Ed Curtis reveals why in this volume of insightful interviews with Texas-based Fortune 500 CEOs, entrepreneurs, leaders, and business icons. Did you know that San Antonio Texas is a major biotech center? Were you aware that the first 7-11 was founded in Dallas? Or that Kendra Scott's first venture was to help cancer patients? Or that podcast and publishing icon Tim Ferriss recently relocated to Austin? Filled with Texan pride, economic insight, and helpful tips from Dallas Stars CEO Jim Lites, T. Boone Pickens, and many more, this is a must-read for anyone contemplating a relocation—or even a visit—to Texas.
