The industrial landscape is evolving dramatically - strengthening some sectors, while weakening others. The industries of yesterday have transformed, consolidated, gone offshore, or disappeared entirely. Economic developers today must stay ahead of the curve for their communities to be competitive in the global economy.
Attend the 2013 Spring Conference to discover emerging opportunities and grasp industry trends every economic developer needs to know. Learn how to leverage your communities' assets and industrial base to transform your economy and stimulate the growth of new clusters, companies and jobs. Featured industries for the 2013 Spring Conference include automotive research and development, higher education, energy conservation, homeland security and defense, and healthcare information technology.
Michigan has had the second largest recovery among all states from the Great Recession. The Ann Arbor region has had sustained low unemployment throughout the recession and the recovery. Conference attendees can learn from this remarkable story and those of other regions around the country that have found new assets, and rediscovered and transformed existing assets, to create economic success.
