2. Las Colinas: A Progressive Climate for Business
Today Las Colinas enjoys a reputation as one of the most
progressive corporate communities in the world and is the home of
major companies such as ExxonMobil, Nokia USA, and The
Associates.
This phenomenal environment, combined with the proposed Dallas
Area Rapid Transit System light rail line servicing the Urban
Center and DFW Airport and a new Convention Center will
continue to make Las Colinas the premier corporate address.
3. The Las Colinas Vision. Planned for Excellence.
Today Las Colinas continues dynamic growth. The city of Irving remains
world-class serving both the corporate community and the residents by
keeping them connected in unique and unprecedented development.
The Dallas Area Rapid Transit light rail will soon serve the Las Colinas
Urban Center en route to Downtown Dallas and DFW International
Airport.
Planned amenities package for Lake Carolyn will include a pedestrian
promenade and fountains. Also planned are a centennial park, a
sculpture garden, and a festival plaza for year round corporate and
family enjoyment.

Mission Objectives
5. Going green is more than a marketing campaign
It is a national imperative. Adoption and understanding has deeply
penetrated a narrow audience, now it is time to reach out to
mainstream consumers and businesses.
Enhancing your green campaign will allow you to compete with
non-green marketing powerhouses, without breaking the bank.
6. Utilizing Social Media
Tapping into the social media shift in web "conversations" from the
question of "Is Global Warming real" to "What do we do about it."
Among those Americans using new media, almost 80% interact with
a brand and/or company.
A rich resource being mined by companies seeking green
customers.
Broadcast surveys that are motion, not facilitation.
