Detroit is known as more than just a destination. Instead, you could call it an entire conversation. This is why we are so pleased to present this week’s 30-Minute Monday segment. Not many cities can boast some of the unique features Detroit proudly displays. From being coined an “IT city” to cultivating spaces that emphasize the importance of creativity and entrepreneurship, to providing platforms for dreamers and doers to impact the city they call home. Join us as we dive deep into how this city has made DEI more than a moniker and woven it into the fabric of their entire community.
