Executive Director

Inspired by the economic clubs of NY, Chicago and Detroit, the Economic Club of Dallas was established in 2025 to connect, inform and empower global business leaders operating across the Texas Triangle region. As a rapidly growing hub of innovation, finance and cultural diversity, Dallas is uniquely positioned to host this forum of global CEO’s and decision makers driving economic expansion across the nation. Through showcasing leaders and fostering meaningful discussions on economic trends, policy frameworks and business activities, the ECD provides an effective forum contributing to understanding and opportunity. Areas of focus include economic and fiscal policy, defense, space, technology, finance, energy and infrastructure. The ECD’s founding was sponsored by some of the region’s most influential business leaders including a Founding Member group of 40 executives and a meaningful initial financial base. Two introductory events have taken place, the first featuring Jim Lee of the Texas Stock Exchange and the second featuring Alex Karp of Palantir. At this time we are expanding our programming and membership base and require an Executive Director to lead these efforts going forward.
