Tour of the Ion
Last week, Pearland Economic Development Corporation (PEDC), along with Mayor Cole and city staff had the opportunity to tour the Ion – a 266,000-square foot structure designed to bring Houston’s entrepreneurial, corporate, and academic communities together into collaborative spaces and programs.
Through a robust range of events, programming, and programs, The Ion provides resources for those seeking to strengthen Houston’s economic resiliency and competitiveness, attract and retain innovative talent, companies, and institutions, as well as foster an inclusive and welcoming neighborhood that offers economic opportunity to all Houstonians.
