Gene Lindgren, LEDC President & CEO, recently met with Outreach Specialist Austin Martinez of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. 

Gene provided information about the current economic landscape for the Laredo region along with valuable data, business sector trends, and the outlook for 2023 and beyond. Mr. Martinez provided information related to the economic outlook for the State of Texas, energy indicators, and the Texas employment forecast. 

Both discussed upcoming events and collaborative opportunities including follow-up visits from Federal Reserve senior leadership in the coming months and a potential business conversation for our members and partners.  We will continue to nurture the relationship to find ways that are mutually beneficial to the LEDC, the Laredo region, and the Dallas Federal Reserve.
