SUMMARY:Register Now for the Center for Houston’s Future 2024 Dinner and Conversation November 19, 2024 – Houston
DESCRIPTION:This Event Reminder is Sponsored by:\n\nThe Center for Houston’s Future’s signature fall event, Dinner and Conversation, will feature an exciting conversation, A Texas Talk: Reflecting on the Past, Envisioning the Future, between two important Texas voices. Stephen Harrigan, the award-winning author of 12 fiction and non-fiction books, including Big Wonderful Thing, a sweeping narrative of Texas history, will appear in conversation with Sonal Shah, CEO of the Texas Tribune, who has a long record of social impact work across multiple sectors.\nWe will also present our annual Eugene H. Vaughan Civic Leadership Award to Marek Companies President and CEO Stan Marek, for his long record of outstanding leadership, service and impact in multiple areas across our region.\nDavid E. Harvey Jr. and Joe Cleary, co-chairmen of the board of Harvey|Harvey-Cleary, are chairing our annual community engagement and thought leadership event.\nNovember 19 @ 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm\nAbout the Center for Houston’s Future\nCenter for Houston’s Future is a nonprofit that works to understand future global trends and their impact on the Houston region. We focus on issues that are critical to the long-term success of Greater Houston. In short, we aim to ensure Houston remains a great place to live and work for all its residents.\nWe bring business, government, community and academic stakeholders to engage in planning, research, consensus building and action. Our framework includes three key pillars: strategic initiatives, community outreach/thought leadership and our Business/Civic Leadership Forum. We conduct economic research and strategic planning, hold community events and develop leaders.\nOur strategic initiatives currently include energy, climate and the energy transition; health and health equity; and the economic importance of immigration. Much of our strategic work starts with an economic lens and efforts may include road map and project creation.\nThe Center, also known as CHF, was created in 1992 as an affiliate of the Greater Houston Partnership to develop research projects and educational programs.\nIn 2000, after input from business and civic leaders, the Center was spun off from the Greater Houston Partnership, as an independent affiliate with an independent board, to focus on deepening the bench and widening the circle of civic leadership in the region.\nThe Center continues its independent affiliation with the Partnership as well as our Business/Civic Leadership Forum, which has graduated some 1,300 leaders.\n
