ANNUAL REPORT GROW & MARKET A VIBRANT HOUSTON PORT REGION ECONOMY

MISSION GROW & MARKET A VIBRANT REGIONAL ECONOMY

THE HOUSTON PORT REGION IS ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL INDUSTRIAL & LOGISTIC HUBS IN THE WORLD. The geographic location provides global access for both goods and people. From Port Houston to a host of multi-national entities doing business around the clock, the Houston Port region is where you want to be to connect your business to the world.

LARGEST PETROCHEMICAL COMPLEX & THE NATION’S BUSIEST PORT A powerhouse largely due to our business-friendly climate as well as access to world-class infrastructure and a talented workforce that crosses production, maritime and an array of logistic expertise.

DIRECT ACCESS TO THE HOUSTON SHIP CHANNEL & NUMEROUS LOGISTICAL & DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS Ideal hub for companies that need worldwide distribution for their products. Access is aided by our world-class infrastructure that supplies workers, minimizes time, transportation, and distribution costs domestically and internationally.

A STABLE INVESTMENT FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT Through our policy work we strengthen our economic development assets, transportation infrastructure, workforce development partners, and investment protections.

CHAIRMAN’S INSIGHT The Houston Port region continues to stand as one of the world’s most powerful engines of economic growth—and that progress is made possible by you.

Over the past 15 years, the region has secured 87 successful projects, creating 4,725 new jobs and generating more than $19.5 billion in capital investment. While the pace of growth has moderated from historic highs, our trajectory remains strong and forward-looking, reflecting the resilience and competitiveness of our regional economy.

Thanks to the collective efforts of our members, partners, and staff, the Economic Alliance advanced our key initiatives this past year: ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT - Supported three project wins that resulted in 31 new direct jobs and $325 million in capital investment, while also supporting 1,007 indirect jobs, $314 million in labor income, and generating a one-time economic impact of $235 million.

PRIORITIES FOR GROWTH - A leadership delegation represented the Houston Port region in Washington, D.C., holding 34 meetings with Senate, Congressional, and association leaders to advance federal policy priorities. We also compiled and presented state policy priorities during the 89th Texas Legislative Session.

INFRASTRUCTURE UPGRADES - Working alongside the Texas House Speaker and TxDOT, we advocated for the study, funding, and redevelopment of SH 225, I-610, and all eight Beltway direct connectors—the transportation corridors most critical to our region’s long-term success.

MARKETING CAREER PATHWAYS - Continued to promote career opportunities in petrochemical, maritime, logistics, construction, and manufacturing fields. Through 57 presentations and campus visits, we reached 3,875 students and influencers, supported by 103 volunteers and participating companies.

COMMUNITY BEAUTIFICATION - Through a matching grant in partnership with the San Jacinto Texas Historic District, we supported projects that enhance public safety, beautification, and community engagement.

OUTLOOKS & FORECASTS - Our thought leadership efforts included nine events that drew 3,240 attendees, with an average of 360 participants per event, providing timely insight into key trends and challenges facing our industries.

None of this work happens without your support. Your investment in the Economic Alliance strengthens collaboration, deepens partnerships, and helps ensure long-term growth for the Houston Port region.

We encourage you to share these accomplishments with prospective members who can benefit from—and contribute to—our diverse and well-connected organization.

Thank you for your continued commitment and leadership.

Charles Neal, Chairman General Manager - PVOH, Kuraray America, Inc.
