Thank you to everyone who joined us for our September breakfast meeting. A big thank you to Chris Thompson, COO of Circuit of the Americas, for an eye-opening look at how COTA evolved from a racetrack into a year-round destination and economic engine for Austin.

Great conversation, great connections, and a great reminder that sometimes the biggest growth comes from rethinking what business you're really in.
