A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT,
MATTHEW RONK
Welcome to SITE Texas!
It is truly an honor to serve as President of this incredible chapter during a year defined by our theme: Bigger, Bolder, and Better Than Ever. This isn’t just a slogan for 2026 — it’s a commitment to how we show up for our members, our partners, and the future of our industry.
SITE Texas has long been recognized as one of the most engaged and innovative chapters within SITE Global. As we move into 2026, we are building on that strong foundation with intentional growth, thoughtful leadership development, and programming designed to deliver real value and meaningful connection.
This year, our focus is centered on a few key priorities:
-
Investing in People: Through the evolution of our chapter awards into impact-driven scholarships, expanded Young Leaders initiatives, and clearer pathways to leadership, we are turning recognition into opportunity and supporting growth at every career stage.
-
Strengthening Community: From our Signature Events and Site Texas Summit to our Roadshows and Educational Programming, we are creating spaces where relationships are built, ideas are exchanged, and collaboration thrives.
-
Leading with Purpose: We are committed to responsible financial stewardship, inclusive engagement, and long-term sustainability — ensuring SITE Texas continues to grow responsibly while expanding our reach and influence.
-
Shaping the Future: By embracing innovation, elevating education, and fostering cross-generational collaboration, we are preparing our chapter — and our members — for what’s next.
Most importantly, SITE Texas is powered by its people — and especially by the partners who choose to invest in this chapter year after year. Our sponsors play a critical role in making everything we do possible. Their support, commitment, and belief in the mission of SITE Texas allow us to deliver meaningful education, create high-impact events, invest in scholarships, and foster connection across our community. Alongside our volunteers, board members, buyers, and suppliers, our sponsors are true partners in our success, and we are deeply grateful for their continued trust and engagement.
Whether you are a longtime member or just beginning your journey with SITE Texas, I invite you to get involved, stay curious, and help us continue to raise the bar. Together, we are building something that is not only bigger and bolder — but better than ever.
Thank you for being part of SITE Texas. I look forward to an inspiring year ahead.
Warm regards,
Matt Ronk
