The Economic Club of Texas is a private membership network for senior investment professionals, finance executives and corporate leaders — gathering quarterly across Austin, Dallas and Houston.











The heart of the Club is reserved for members: the private directory, member briefings, member-only evenings and full session recordings. Everything here starts with an account — anyone can create an Economic Club of Texas account to sign in and see what is open to account holders, and dues-paying members unlock the private surfaces below.
Search fellow members by chapter, industry and expertise — the Club's private network for warm introductions. Members only.
Long-form essays, session write-ups and market notes written by members and speakers — held inside the Club and not published publicly.
Reserve seats at member-only evenings and stream full session recordings — the complete archive, members only.
Open to every Economic Club of Texas account holder once you sign in: public job postings, deals, service providers and open discussions. Member-only listings and the full match engine stay reserved for members.
Not a member yet? Create a free account to sign in and follow the public side of the Club, then apply for membership when you are ready for the directory, briefings and member-only evenings.
Allocators, founders, executives and policymakers — chosen for what they actually know.
“The room is small, the conversations are candid, and I’ve closed real relationships here that I haven’t found anywhere else in Texas.”
Members submit short commentary on markets, deals and policy. Editors review, publish, and surface the best on the homepage.
Chuck Murphy, Opportunity Austin and Britt Harris are making firm visits in New York in early September to recruit firms and people to Austin. Jane Street, Blackstone, KKR, Elliott, Polymarket, Evercore and McKinsey are among the names on the list — and a warm introduction from a member opens more doors than a cold email.
Whether you’re an investor, an operator, or a firm looking to support statewide programming — there’s a tier that fits.
Event invitations, speaker announcements and Club news from Austin, Dallas and Houston. We just need your email and your name or company — the rest helps us send you the right invitations.

Membership is curated. Tell us who you are and we’ll walk you through the tier that fits.
