The Greater Houston Partnership International and Investment Trade team embarked on a trip across Europe last month to promote the Greater Houston region as a prime location for business investment and growth! The team visited the ERHARDT headquarters in Bilbao, Spain, met with TAIK to strengthen ties with the Turkish business community, explored the Swedish hydrogen market and green steel trend with the The Swedish Energy Agency International and engaged with Portuguese companies eager to expand into the US.
