Best Dressed

Getting gala-ready doesn’t always mean donning black-tie attire! Just ask the folks at Catastrophic Theatre, who threw a too-fun toga party at Downtown-area Rec Room, which featured Greek food and, of course, plenty of vino. And the Jeans & Jerseys party raised nearly $300,000 for Project 88, a foundation established by Houston Texan Garrett Graham and his wife Ericka to ensure guidance counselors are available in public schools.

Gerard O’Brien, Founder of Texas Entrepreneurial Summit

YOU HAVE BEEN successful with ORION Ambulance Services and various other business interests; how do you plan to diversify and potentially share your insights with others? A great deal of my excitement for this year comes from an opportunity to assist a crucial group of the Houston community: our local entrepreneurs. I believe that a key metric of the health of a region’s society is the success of local business owners. Consequently, I am forming the Texas Entrepreneurial Summit, a series of speaking seminars featuring myself and other entrepreneurs across a spectrum of industries. Together, we will offer new, or established, business owners glimpses of our own experiences through not only the uplifting aspects of being an entrepreneur, but also the treacheries of running a business.
