Governor Greg Abbott celebrated Texas winning Site Selection magazine’s Governor’s Cup for attracting the most job-creating business location and expansion projects during a press conference at the Governor’s Mansion in Austin. Texas has been recognized as the nation’s top-performing state 14 years in a row and 22 years in total.
Texas was recognized as the No. 1 state for attracting more than 1,400 business location and expansion projects in 2025, representing more than $75 billion in capital investment and creating more than 42,000 new jobs. Texas attracted more than twice the total number of projects of the second-ranked state.
The Governor’s Cup is awarded annually by Site Selection, an award-winning magazine recognized as the leading publication in corporate real estate, facility planning, location analysis, and foreign direct investment.
