SUMMARY:February Leadership Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:At our latest leadership luncheon\, The Honorable Mayor Eric Johnson sat down for a candid fireside chat about the unvarnished truth regarding Dallas’ explosive growth and the critical role the business community plays in sustaining it. \nFrom public safety to major corporate relocations\, the message was clear: Dallas is open for business\, and we aren’t slowing down. \nThe Mayor challenged everyone in the room to stay engaged year-round. “Voting is the bare minimum\,” he said\, urging the business community to hold officials accountable for policies that protect economic freedom. \nOur team was also deeply honored to receive special recognition from Mayor Johnson for the MCBA’s work in addressing homelessness\, crime\, and fostering a network of over 100 member companies. \nThank you to Mayor Johnson\, Moderator Amy Robbins\, and the Dallas Capital Bank team for making this such a high-impact afternoon for our members. \n  \n

SUMMARY:June Leadership Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:On June 3\, MCBA welcomed Matt Cole\, CEO of Strive and CIO of Strive Asset Management\, for our June Leadership Luncheon. \nMatt shared his perspective on returning corporate America to its core principles: shareholder value\, meritocracy\, and long-term discipline. He addressed Strive’s bold approach to depoliticizing investing\, the growing role of Bitcoin in corporate treasuries\, and how transparent shareholder voting can drive accountability. \nThe discussion drew meaningful connections between Strive’s mission in the boardroom and MCBA’s local efforts to ensure taxpayer priorities are front and center in DFW governance. \nWe thank Matt for an engaging conversation and our members for their continued leadership in strengthening North Texas communities.
