In this episode of Go Time, Mayor Parker sits down with Robert Allen, President and CEO of the Fort Worth Economic Development Partnership. A fifth-generation Texan with deep experience leading economic development at the state level, Robert now helps position Fort Worth as one of the fastest-growing and most dynamic business hubs in the nation. Together, they discuss Robert’s journey from the Governor’s Office to founding leadership of the Fort Worth EDP, the city’s momentum in attracting transformative projects, and how strategic partnerships with industry and higher education are shaping the region’s workforce.
