Division Overview

The Office of the Governor, Economic Development & Tourism consists of four programs. These programs

include Texas Business Development, Texas Tourism, the Office of Aerospace and Aviation, and the

Economic Development Bank.

Texas Business Development is charged with domestic and international business recruitment and

corporate expansion efforts for the state by marketing Texas as a premiere business location utilizing the

“Texas Wide Open for Business” campaign.

Domestic Expansion and Recruitment serves as the primary point of contact for companies looking to

expand existing operations in Texas or relocate a business from out of state. This section has achieved

great success, working on nationally recognized projects such as Samsung’s Semiconductor Plant which

will bring 900 jobs and a $4-5 billion capitol investment to Austin.

International Business and Recruitment continues to assist Texas companies seeking to expand into

foreign markets and encourage foreign investment in Texas. Texas remains the nation’s largest exporting

state with 2006 exports valued at $150.8 billion. Texas was also recognized as an international business

leader and named the 2005-2007 “U.S. State of the Future” by Foreign Direct Investment magazine.

Business Research provides support by providing economic and demographic data, analyses and

information on industries and communities. The extensive databases and research tools provide accurate

and timely information on doing business in Texas – strengthening the State’s ability to recruit and attract

business.

Texas Tourism promotes Texas both domestically and internationally as a premier tourist destination to

generate tourism revenues and jobs for Texas communities. Texas Tourism consists of Advertising, Public

Relations and Travel Research.

Advertising oversees the award-winning tourism ad campaigns, including national cable television

commercials, domestic and international print ads in consumer and trade publication, radio and

newspaper campaigns and interactive media such as the internet, including www.TravelTex.com.

Public Relations works with the travel trade industry and media throughout the United States and top

international markets including Mexico, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany and Japan.

Travel Research provides and analyzes information about the domestic and international travel trends.

Travel research also provides tourism outreach services to assist Texas communities develop tourism

economic development. For a detailed look at the Texas Tourism Marketing Plan, please link to

www.travel.state.tx.us

The Office of Aerospace and Aviation focuses on maintaining Texas’ leadership position by

developing business strategies to promote the retention, development and expansion of aerospace and

aviation industry facilities in Texas. In addition, the program also provides technical support and expertise

to state and local spaceport authorities and promotes the development of spaceports in Texas.

The Economic Development Bank provides flexible funding and oversight of several finance and tax

incentive programs. The incentive programs target three key audiences which include Texas businesses,

Texas communities and Texas lending institutions. The Economic Development Bank programs include

Finance programs, Enterprise programs and Small Business Assistance.

Trusteed Programs

Texas Enterprise Fund The Texas Enterprise Fund, a trusteed program within the Bank and the largest “deal closing” fund of its

kind in the nation, continues to attract businesses and jobs to Texas. During the last legislative session,

the fund was reauthorized for $180 million. Since its inception in September 2003, the fund has awarded

more than $360 million with a total capital investment of $15.4 billion and has secured more than 49,000

jobs to date.

Emerging Technology Fund The $200 million Texas Emerging Technology Program (ETF) has awarded more than $89 million in grants

to date and is helping Texas create jobs and grow the economy over the long-term by:

• expediting the development and commercialization of new technologies

• attracting and creating jobs in technology fields that will form the backbone of our economy

The program will work through partnerships between the state, institutions of higher education and

private industry to focus greater attention on the research, development and commercialization of

emerging technology through the following three areas:

� Creating at least six Regional Centers of Innovation and Commercialization (RCIC) throughout

the state.

� Matching grant funds for technology research and development projects that accelerate

commercialization into production and have a demonstrated ability to receive federal grants.

� Attract highly renowned research talent from other universities and institutions in other states.

Texas Enterprise Fund

“The door is open for business in Texas, and the Texas Enterprise Fund allows us to put that sign up in neon.” – Gov. Rick Perry

At Gov. Rick Perry’s request, the 78th Texas Legislature established the Texas Enterprise Fund (TEF) in 2003 to provide financial resources to help strengthen the state’s economy. Funds for the TEF were reappropriated in 2005 and 2007, making more than $250 million available for the job creation fund in the 2008-2009 biennium.

The Texas Enterprise Fund, the largest “deal closing” fund of its kind in the nation, continues to attract businesses and jobs to Texas. The TEF recently attracted Comerica’s headquarters to Dallas, bringing 200 jobs; and prompted Rackspace Managed Hosting to expand in San Antonio, creating more than 4,000 jobs.

To date, the state has allocated more than $366 million from the Texas Enterprise Fund, bringing more than 51,600 new jobs and generating more than $13.6 billion in capital investments to the state.

Projects that are considered for TEF support must demonstrate a project’s worthiness, maximize the benefits to the State of Texas and realize a significant rate of return of the public dollars being used for the economic development of Texas. Capital investment, job creation, wages generated, financial strength of the applicant, applicant’s business history, analysis of the relevant business sector, federal and local government and private sector financial support of a project are all significant factors in approving the use of the Enterprise Fund.

The Governor’s Office works closely with local leaders to tailor incentive packages that best meet the needs of local communities and businesses. Recruiting new business and helping to expand existing business is a dynamic process.

If you have a project that can benefit from the Texas Enterprise Fund, an application must be submitted to the Office of the Governor, Economic Development & Tourism division, which provides information on how funds are to be utilized and how the proposed project meets the criteria of the program. The Texas Enterprise Fund application is available at www.governor.state.tx.us/divisions/ecodev/ed.bank/tefund.

Emerging Technology Fund

“In Texas, we understand that high-tech companies don't just happen overnight but are a product of forethought, sound vision and planning, and strategic investments by both the public and private sectors. Through our Emerging Technology Fund, we are bringing the best scientists and researchers to Texas, attracting high-tech jobs and helping start-up companies get off the ground faster.” – Gov. Rick Perry

The Emerging Technology Fund (ETF), created by the Texas Legislature in 2005 at the urging of Gov. Perry, provides Texas with an unparalleled advantage by expediting the development and commercialization of new technologies, and by recruiting the best research talent in the world. Matching and commercialization funds coupled with additional federal and outside investments mean new technology is emerging in Texas. The ETF was reauthorized by the 80th Texas Legislature, making more than $185 million available during the 2008-09 biennium.

The program works through partnerships between the state, institutions of higher education and private industry to focus greater attention on the research, development, and commercialization of emerging technology. There are seven Regional Centers of Innovation and Commercialization (RCIC) and one Texas Life Science Center to serve stakeholders throughout the state in:

• Top Talent Acquisition: For acquisition of “research superiority” for Texas higher

education institutions, e.g., attracting additional, established, “high profile”

researchers as faculty;

• Commercialization Awards: Provides selected, early-stage investments in new,

technology-based, private entrepreneurial entities that collaborate with public or

private institutions of higher education in Texas, and which, if successful, may provide

significant economic benefit to the state.

Key components of the ETFThe ETF brings new ideas and products to the marketplace today. This innovation and the commercialization will have a long-term profound impact on Texas.

Priority is given to emerging technology projects that will enhance Texas’ global competitiveness – that are collaborative and leverage both critical expertise and financial resources. Not only will these ETF investments demonstrate economic benefits, they will also result in significant medical and or scientific breakthroughs which will improve people’s lives.

Recipients commit to work in a collaborative environment and support Texas economic development by growing their business in Texas and providing a return on the State of Texas’ investment.

AWARDS

To date, the ETF has awarded over $140 million to Texas companies and universities. Below are two examples of ETF award recipients.

NanoMedical Systems (NMS) was awarded $3,500,000 to assist with the development of the company’s Personalized Molecular Drug-delivery System (PMDS). The PMDS is a small capsule designed to be implanted just under the skin in a simple office procedure. The capsule will be able to hold enough medication for weeks or months of controlled release. NMS will commercialize the patented research of co-founder Dr. Mauro Ferrari. Dr. Ferrari was recruited through an ETF Research Superiority grant to the Alliance for NanoHealth at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston.

Texas AgriLife Research, an agency of the Texas A&M University System, was awarded $4,025,000 by the ETF for research and development of the economical production of microalgae-derived fuels, such as biodiesel. Microalgae-derived biofuels could produce 15,000 gallons of biodiesel per acre per year compared to the 50 gallons per acre per year typical of soybeans. The funds provided by the ETF will allow Texas AgriLife Research to acquire the personnel and physical resources necessary to research and develop the technologies necessary to tap into the incredible potential of microalgae-derived biofuels and offer those benefits to people worldwide.
