What happens when business leaders from M&A, real estate, and private wealth sit down to talk about where Houston is headed? In this episode of IDT My Way, Mike Slabic, Senior Partner at Century Oak Private Wealth, leads a conversation with Andy Mouer, Partner at MouerHuston PLLC, and Mike Novelli, Managing Partner at Cypressbrook.

They discuss their careers, the lessons they’ve carried from competitive athletics into business, and what they’re seeing across M&A and commercial real estate today. The conversation also explores what makes Houston such a compelling place to do business, from continued investment and population growth to the resilience and community that define the city.

All three share why getting business leaders in the same room matters, and what they hope attendees will take away from IDT EXPO 2026. Mike Slabic, Andy Mouer, and Mike Novelli will continue the conversation on stage at IDT EXPO 2026 in Houston on October 15th.
