UPCDC Restructuring

The UPCDC restructuring initiative, launched at the Landmark Inn on June 17, 2013, aims to enhance collaboration among local partners in economic development. This new tiered structure promotes monthly and bimonthly meetings with state officials and regional stakeholders, ensuring a streamlined, organized approach to economic support. The initiative features a real-time, user-friendly economic development site selection database, provides valuable local business data storage, and emphasizes collective engagement across all involved agencies. This effort supports initiatives like Pure Michigan Talent Connect and focuses on overcoming growth challenges faced by local businesses. ###
