We are excited to host the 2025 event at the recently completed Thompson Houston which was built in part with EB-5 financing by our Host City Sponsor, Houston EB5.

The hotel is a 36-story architectural marvel in scenic Buffalo Bayou Park that will impress guests at every turn, offering an unparalleled hotel experience with personalized hospitality, originally designed rooms, outstanding culinary options, a full-service spa, and one of the city’s largest rooftop pool decks. For a truly unforgettable entrance, our new boutique hotel also boasts its own heliport. This remarkable luxury oasis is perfectly positioned for exploring the best of Houston with walking and biking trails, art installations and exciting downtown attractions nearby.

IIUSA has secured a room block of $319/night.

A speaking interest form will be available in the coming months. Be on the lookout to submit the form to let us know your interest in speaking and/or what topics you would like to see presented at the event.

IIUSA is happy to provide continuing legal education credit (CLE) for qualifying attendees.* In order to receive credit, you must attend a qualifying session in its entirety and provide the CLE code given at the end of the session in the CLE request form. Additionally, you must be checked-in the event (receive your name badge from the registration table). If both of these requirements are not met, we will not be able to provide you a certificate of attendance to receive CLE credit. No exceptions.

A form to request credit will be provided after the conclusion of the event. This is where you will enter the CLE codes given at the conclusion of the qualifying sessions. The exact number of available credits will be determined closer to the event.

*IIUSA is an approved Multiple Activity Provider with the State Bar of California; therefore, CLE sessions are already approved for credit with the State Bar of California. Attorneys seeking credit in states other than California will need to self-apply or self-certify with his/her state bar. IIUSA makes no guarantee that the courses will be approved in other states. IIUSA will provide materials needed to self-apply/self-certify upon request.
