A morning breakfast event featuring keynote speaker Matt Petersen and honoring Mayor Bill White
The Texas Oklahoma Chapter of the International Interior Design Association is pleased to announce the debut of the highly coveted Leaders Breakfast Series to Houston. This year's event will be held on the morning of Wednesday, May 20th at The Junior League of Houston.
The Leaders Breakfast program serves to bridge the gap between the design industry and the business leaders in the region. Our goal is to build on the success of the Dallas Leaders Breakfast series to create a premier Houston event that you will want to invite your clients and colleagues to attend.
You will have the opportunity to mingle with design leaders and business innovators, and join in honoring leaders within the community. In addition to Houston, breakfast programs will be held in New York, Boston, Chicago, Kansas City, San Francisco, Seattle and Toronto.
