鈥淚 think what鈥檚 worth flagging is what really drove this bill were two things,鈥 Babcock said of Texas Senate Bill 29, signed into law by Governor Greg Abbott on May 14, 2025. 鈥淥ne, it was the establishment of the business courts, which I think have been about a ten-year project to really have a dedicated business court in Texas that finally went live this past September.” The second, Babcock explained, was “the sense there could be an opportunity for incorporations,” especially given recent unpredictability in other jurisdictions.
Converse added that the “bill creates certainty and predictability for all Texas incorporated companies and was supported by a range of Texas-incorporated and Texas-headquartered businesses.”
“And I think it also is great for the state itself,” he continued, “because it鈥檚 going to encourage companies that are headquartered in other jurisdictions. They鈥檙e going to see this law and see these changes and see the benefits of incorporating in Texas, which is going to be good for Texas in general.鈥
