Where Texas meets the Gulf.
The Texas Gulf Alliance builds lasting relationships between Texas and the Gulf Cooperation Council states, with a special focus on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Relationships come first. Trade follows.
To build a lasting bridge of trust between Texas and the Gulf, and to turn those relationships into trade, investment, and shared prosperity.
Three commitments guide our work.
Connect
We introduce Texas business and civic leaders to their counterparts across the Gulf, and Gulf leaders to Texas.
