Economic Excellence Recognition Program

About the Economic Excellence Recognition Program

In an effort to continue strengthening the knowledge and skills of economic development professionals and volunteers throughout the state, the Texas Economic Development Council has instituted its Economic Excellence Recognition Program. Organizations are eligible to apply for the Economic Excellence Recognition each year. Past recipients are encouraged to apply each year in order to keep their recognition current.
