Austin Business Coverage

Bekovert covers Austin's business community with a focus on the practical questions that owners, founders, and executives face as the city grows. That means commercial real estate trends, office space decisions, the mechanics of starting and running a company in Texas, and the shifting geography of Austin's professional neighborhoods.

Austin has changed faster than most cities its size over the past decade, and the business landscape has changed with it. The Domain corridor, the east side's commercial corridor, the suburban expansion into Cedar Park and Round Rock, the tax and formation environment that draws companies from other states: these aren't abstract topics. They affect real decisions about where to sign a lease, how to structure a company, and which city resources are actually worth using.

The articles here are written for people who run businesses in Austin or plan to. They're meant to be practically useful, grounded in how things actually work rather than how they're supposed to work, and current enough to reflect the market as it stands rather than how it was three years ago.
