Happy new fiscal year! The Greater San Marcos Partnership (GSMP), fresh off the heels of the greatest year in our organization’s history, began its new fiscal year on October 1 and is already hitting the ground running.
To start, I am immensely delighted and humbled to announce that GSMP was recognized by the International Economic Development Council (IEDC) with the Silver Award in the category of Economic Development Organization of the Year. This recognition is a wonderful accolade for our organization, but more importantly, it’s a testament of the incredible work that our region is collaboratively doing together.
Economic development, as I’ve said before, is a team sport. This award recognition does not happen without the significant efforts of the GSMP team, our GSMP board members, our regional city-level economic development partners, our civic leaders, community organizations, our business community and the many, many volunteers who support economic development efforts in Hays and Caldwell counties. Together, we are all facilitating the creation of new and better paying jobs that are elevating the quality of life in our region.
