There's watching a Houston Texans game at NRG Stadium, and then there's watching the game from one of the very posh, very exclusive, very worth it Texans Luxe suites.

But this isn't your typical suite experience — Luxe memberships go beyond just fancy seats for 10 home games each year.

Your membership is not confined to gameday, though you'll definitely want to be there during kickoff. There are also private, Luxe member-only outings that the general public can't access.

Here's a breakdown of what it's like cheering on the Texans from a Houston Texans suite, and what other perks come with the oh-so-coveted Luxe membership:

The Suite Life
Get ready for an unparalleled gameday experience that starts with valet parking options, a private red-carpet entrance to NRG Stadium, and ends on the field with the BMW Postgame Experience.

A personal suite attendant is on hand to serve drinks and food while also tidying up. Members can cater mouthwatering snacks and meals that source as many ingredients locally as possible, and can accommodate all dietary preferences.

There are even collaborations with some of Houston’s finest chefs and restaurants, including James Beard Award-winning chef Chris Shepherd, local barbecue legend Ronnie Killen, six-time James Beard Award finalist Hugo Ortega, local favorite Goode Company, and eatery Anthonie’s Market Grill. You'll only find these one-of-a-kind menu items at NRG Stadium.

Worried about over-ordering drinks? Each suite comes with a locking liquor cabinet to store any leftover drinks until the next game.

Look to TV screens equipped with NFL Sunday Ticket and NFL RedZone to catch all the action. Texans cheerleaders can also stop by for a visit.

Members Only
Luxe Members gain invites year-round to other exclusive events and opportunities you won’t find anywhere else.

Imagine traveling in style to a Texans road game as a guest on the team plane, watching Texans training camp from a private tent, or receiving a post-draft recap from general manager Nick Caserio.

Members get the opportunity to enjoy the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo from the Founder’s Suite, as well as an invite to the Business Partner Invitational Golf Tournament at Bluejack National.

Another eagerly anticipated event is Texans Luxe Minicamp, where members get an overview of all their benefits and learn about new menu options.

Finally, you’ll want to clear your schedule for the Luxe Dinner series, held at the most esteemed restaurants with a Texans Luxe Chef twist.

Members can also host their own private event at NRG Stadium on a non-game day. Choose from your suite, a Texans boardroom, or anywhere around NRG Park.

And, of course, incredible networking opportunities abound among the more than 150 Luxe members, many of whom are Houston's most influential business leaders. Each member is assigned a Texans Luxe Partnership Service Coordinator, who acts as your point person and helps facilitate meetings and introductions. You might just form your new best partnership!

All the Options
Single-game suites are also available — you can even purchase them through BitWallet, the official digital currency wallet of the Houston Texans — but keep in mind you'll be missing out on all the cool bonuses listed above.

Options are available now for the 2022-23 NFL season, and you won't want to miss out on the chance to join the Texans Luxe family. Please fill out this form to be contacted for more information. You can also call Andrew Vitale at 713-724-7732 or email him at Andrew.Vitale@HoustonTexans.com to schedule a meeting.

MD Anderson makes AI partnership to advance precision oncology

AI Oncology

Few experts will disagree that data-driven medicine is one of the most certain ways forward for our health. However, actually adopting it comes at a steep curve. But what if using the technology were democratized?

This is the question that SOPHiA GENETICS has been seeking to answer since 2011 with its universal AI platform, SOPHiA DDM. The cloud-native system analyzes and interprets complex health care data across technologies and institutions, allowing hospitals and clinicians to gain clinically actionable insights faster and at scale.

The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has just announced its official collaboration with SOPHiA GENETICS to accelerate breakthroughs in precision oncology. Together, they are developing a novel sequencing oncology test, as well as creating several programs targeted at the research and development of additional technology.

That technology will allow the hospital to develop new ways to chart the growth and changes of tumors in real time, pick the best clinical trials and medications for patients and make genomic testing more reliable. Shashikant Kulkarni, deputy division head for Molecular Pathology, and Dr. J. Bryan, assistant professor, will lead the collaboration on MD Anderson’s end.

“Cancer research has evolved rapidly, and we have more health data available than ever before. Our collaboration with SOPHiA GENETICS reflects how our lab is evolving and integrating advanced analytics and AI to better interpret complex molecular information,” Dr. Donna Hansel, division head of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at MD Anderson, said in a press release. “This collaboration will expand our ability to translate high-dimensional data into insights that can meaningfully advance research and precision oncology.”

SOPHiA GENETICS is based in Switzerland and France, and has its U.S. offices in Boston.

“This collaboration with MD Anderson amplifies our shared ambition to push the boundaries of what is possible in cancer research,” Dr. Philippe Menu, chief product officer and chief medical officer at SOPHiA GENETICS, added in the release. “With SOPHiA DDM as a unifying analytical layer, we are enabling new discoveries, accelerating breakthroughs in precision oncology and, most importantly, enabling patients around the globe to benefit from these innovations by bringing leading technologies to all geographies quickly and at scale.”

Houston company plans lunar mission to test clean energy resource

lunar power

Houston-based natural resource and lunar development company Black Moon Energy Corporation (BMEC) announced that it is planning a robotic mission to the surface of the moon within the next five years.

The company has engaged NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and Caltech to carry out the mission’s robotic systems, scientific instrumentation, data acquisition and mission operations. Black Moon will lead mission management, resource-assessment strategy and large-scale operations planning.

The goal of the year-long expedition will be to gather data and perform operations to determine the feasibility of a lunar Helium-3 supply chain. Helium-3 is abundant on the surface of the moon, but extremely rare on Earth. BMEC believes it could be a solution to the world's accelerating energy challenges.

Helium-3 fusion releases 4 million times more energy than the combustion of fossil fuels and four times more energy than traditional nuclear fission in a “clean” manner with no primary radioactive products or environmental issues, according to BMEC. Additionally, the company estimates that there is enough lunar Helium-3 to power humanity for thousands of years.

"By combining Black Moon's expertise in resource development with JPL and Caltech's renowned scientific and engineering capabilities, we are building the knowledge base required to power a new era of clean, abundant, and affordable energy for the entire planet," David Warden, CEO of BMEC, said in a news release.

The company says that information gathered from the planned lunar mission will support potential applications in fusion power generation, national security systems, quantum computing, radiation detection, medical imaging and cryogenic technologies.

Black Moon Energy was founded in 2022 by David Warden, Leroy Chiao, Peter Jones and Dan Warden. Chiao served as a NASA astronaut for 15 years. The other founders have held positions at Rice University, Schlumberger, BP and other major energy space organizations.

Houston co. makes breakthrough in clean carbon fiber manufacturing

Future of Fiber

Houston-based Mars Materials has made a breakthrough in turning stored carbon dioxide into everyday products.

In partnership with the Textile Innovation Engine of North Carolina and North Carolina State University, Mars Materials turned its CO2-derived product into a high-quality raw material for producing carbon fiber, according to a news release. According to the company, the product works "exactly like" the traditional chemical used to create carbon fiber that is derived from oil and coal.

Testing showed the end product met the high standards required for high-performance carbon fiber. Carbon fiber finds its way into aircraft, missile components, drones, racecars, golf clubs, snowboards, bridges, X-ray equipment, prosthetics, wind turbine blades and more.

The successful test “keeps a promise we made to our investors and the industry,” Aaron Fitzgerald, co-founder and CEO of Mars Materials, said in the release. “We proved we can make carbon fiber from the air without losing any quality.”

“Just as we did with our water-soluble polymers, getting it right on the first try allows us to move faster,” Fitzgerald adds. “We can now focus on scaling up production to accelerate bringing manufacturing of this critical material back to the U.S.”

Mars Materials, founded in 2019, converts captured carbon into resources, such as carbon fiber and wastewater treatment chemicals. Investors include Untapped Capital, Prithvi Ventures, Climate Capital Collective, Overlap Holdings, BlackTech Capital, Jonathan Azoff, Nate Salpeter and Brian Andrés Helmick.
