YTexas in the press
Fifty one pieces of coverage between 2013 and 2025, including the Texas Comptroller, the Texas Secretary of State, Fox Business, the New York Stock Exchange and the Business Journals in Houston, Austin and Dallas.
YTexas does not buy coverage. Every item on this page is someone else deciding the story was worth telling, which is the only kind of coverage worth listing.
The list runs from a 2013 piece in D Magazine, written the year YTexas started, through to the Texas Comptroller, Fox Business and the New York Stock Exchange. The common thread is corporate relocation into Texas, which is what YTexas has tracked since 2005 and worked on since 2013.
