Overview

Austin Sustainability Professionals presents a panel discussion and mixer for leaders building the Sustainability Economy in Central Texas

Hello Austin Sustainability Professionals!

After a year of whiplash change, one that trained our sights and turned our heads toward more regulatory shifts than many of us anticipated, sustainability professionals are left asking a familiar question: how did we get here, and where are we headed next?

Austin Sustainability Professionals invites you to join us for our Regulatory Round-Up & Mixer, an early-year conversation designed to help make sense of the evolving regulatory landscape shaping sustainability, business, and investment in 2026.

Hosted by the Holland & Knight Austin team, this event brings together legal, policy, corporate, and sustainability leaders for a grounded discussion that might best be summarized as “how it started, and how it’s going.” The conversation will explore regulatory trends, risks, and signals worth watching, without crystal balls, and without alarmism.
