The Woodlands Area Chamber of Commerce has announced the 2018 Economic Outlook Conference will take place on Friday, February 16, 2018 from 7:30am to 1:00pm at The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel & Convention Center.

“The theme for the conference is Resilient Community/ Innovative Future,” says Lupe Cuellar, Director of Government Affairs for The Woodlands Area Chamber of Commerce. “The term ‘Resilient’ was added after facing the impacts of Hurricane Harvey. In addition to the dynamic future that still lies ahead for us, we will be discussing the economic impacts to our community after the storm.”
