Dear Texas Small Business Owners, Entrepreneurs and Resource Providers:

We invite you to attend one of our Governor's Small Business Summits! These Summits aim to help small business owners reach new heights by connecting them with the resources and information needed to start, strengthen and grow a business.

The events offer a variety of sessions bringing together local, state and federal resource partners to provide key insights on critical business topics. It's also an opportunity to network with other business owners and meet experts who will share timely, relevant and actionable advice on a multitude of small business subjects.

Check out the June Summits below as well as a complete list of remaining 2025 Governor's Small Business Summits coming near you. You're also welcome to visit our website at gov.texas.gov/events.
