Representing Round Rock at SelectUSA: The Nation’s Premier Foreign Direct Investment Summit

Leaders from across Williamson County, Texas, recently participated in the SelectUSA Investment Summit in Washington, D.C., the nation’s premier event dedicated to promoting foreign direct investment (FDI) in the United States.

Among those representing the region were Jordan Robinson, President & CEO of the Round Rock Chamber, and Danielle Morrissey, the Chamber’s Senior Director of Economic Development. The Chamber took part as a member of the Williamson County Economic Development Partnership, a collaborative regional initiative focused on attracting and retaining business investment throughout the county.

The summit brought together economic development professionals, global investors, and U.S. government officials to discuss market opportunities and strengthen connections between international companies and American communities. The Williamson County delegation highlighted the region’s unique strengths, including its pro-business environment, talented workforce, and thriving sectors in technology, manufacturing, and innovation.

Round Rock, as a key city within Williamson County, continues to gain attention from global investors, thanks in large part to its strategic location, strong infrastructure, and supportive economic development network.

The unified presence of the Williamson County partnership at SelectUSA demonstrated the region’s commitment to regionalism and shared growth. By working together, cities and organizations across the county are able to present a cohesive and compelling story to potential investors around the world. Participation in events like SelectUSA ensures that Central Texas remains visible and competitive on a global stage—and that its communities are prepared to welcome the opportunities of tomorrow.
