Michigan News featured a story about EGI’s collaborative work with the Downriver Community Conference, which included connecting with Jessica Bazner, owner of Kevin James Menswear.
We’re proud to see how collaborative partnerships between the Economic Growth Institute and community leaders are driving lasting change across Downriver businesses. Targeted support not only empowers entrepreneurs with new tools and resources, but also helps communities adapt and thrive in times of economic transition.
As EGI’s Carmen Wells Quigg shares, “We focus on building capacity and delivering services that strengthen organizations for the long term — by expanding leadership depth, operational capability and resilience.”
