This event will be held on Thursday, May 11, 2023, at the Riverfront Conference Center at the University of Michigan-Flint in Flint.

The Economic Development In Your Place Spring Conference takes learning and networking to communities around Michigan with economic development stories to share. The inaugural event will be held in Flint. The agenda will cover matters that are crucial to keeping a strong economy in Michigan right now, showcase creative places and projects, and provide time for valuable networking.

Learn how the City of Flint is building an entrepreneurial ecosystem, communities are filling unused space as workers stay home, a credit program for small businesses is making a difference, and much more. After lunch, enjoy one of two bus tours. Then, convene at the Market Tap at the Flint Farmers Market to round off this active day.
