The Right Place, the Right Partners: Driving Next-Generation Development in North Texas
ACS’s landmark data center announcement helped put North Texas on the map as a destination for digital infrastructure investment. This session examines the convergence of infrastructure readiness, utility coordination, public-private collaboration, and thoughtful community engagement that made the project possible—and continues to draw related industries to the region. Attendees will gain insight into how this momentum is shaping regional growth and what it signals for the future of industrial and digital development.
Building Through Complexity: Lessons from Hillwood’s Midlothian Case StudyThis session presents a concise case study of Hillwood’s Midlothian development, highlighting how a complex industrial project advanced through close collaboration among public- and private-sector stakeholders. The discussion will focus on navigating regulatory agencies, addressing air rights and surface water considerations, and managing community concerns while keeping the project moving forward. Attendees will gain practical insights into stakeholder coordination, problem-solving strategies, and lessons learned that can be applied to similarly complex development initiatives.
