Jim Perschbach, President & CEO | Port San Antonio
Jim Perschbach leads the team that is developing the 1,900-acre Tech Port innovation campus as a nationally important destination for advanced technologies, including aerospace, cybersecurity, critical infrastructure resiliency, defense, manufacturing and global trade. The Port is one of South Texas’ fastest-growing economic engines—home to over 80 tenant customers and their 19,000 employees, which generate a regional economic impact of over $20 billion in annual economic activity in our region and across the state of Texas, according to a 2025 study.

In addition to his work at the Port, Jim serves his community in numerous leadership roles. Currently, he is a member of the Texas Advanced Air Mobility Committee—a statewide body supporting the development of legislation and policies that support the implementation of emerging air transportation technologies across the state. Jim is also Board Chair of the Kelly Heritage Foundation, a nonprofit organization that supports innovative K-12 learning programs and adult workforce development efforts centered in the San Antonio region’s advanced technologies. He has also been named by the American Business Journals as one of the country’s top 100 executives to watch. Jim holds an undergraduate degree in business administration from The George Washington University and earned his law degree from The University of Houston Law Center.
