The vast number of opportunities for cooperation in multiple industries was a key highlight of the Summit. Panels and sessions covered topics from aviation and aerospace to disinformation and security. Discussions on doing business in Central and Eastern Europe, sponsored by Slovak Touch4IT and Slovak PRO, underscored the expanding reach of Texan businesses into the European market. Overall, Texas, already the largest exporting state to the EU with exports exceeding $46 billion annually, was highlighted as a significant player in the global market. The Summit also brought to light that EU investments in Texas total over $275 billion, creating over 214,500 jobs for Texans, underscoring the mutual benefits of this economic partnership.
The lunchtime keynote presentation by American-British former CIA officer and well-known intelligence expert Mike Baker highlighted the importance of global security in propelling these partnerships forward. His insight on the “Top 5” international security threats that keeps specialists in Washington DC & elsewhere “up at night” was eye opening, particularly the vulnerability of vital infrastructure. Mike is the CEO of Portman Square Group, a regular on the Joe Rogan podcast, and the host of the popular daily news podcast, the President’s Daily Brief.
