A message from James McLennan, BABC Texas President
Welcome to the British American Business Council of Texas! Having been involved with the BABC since I moved to Texas from the UK in 2010, I have reaped many different rewards – both professionally and personally – through my involvement in this expansive and diverse network of people and companies that stretches right across the US.
Whether you are an individual or a small, medium or large sized business operating in Texas, I believe our network has something to offer you. We have a diverse group of members represented by the make up of our Board and we continue to grow year on year. Our aim is to strengthen UK and US (Texas) business ties through thought leadership, networking, events and education.
Above all, we are a fun group of people to be around so if you are not a member please consider joining and don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly.
