GTD is excited to welcome a multiregional International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) delegation of 27 visitors to Detroit! Bringing together business executives, economic development leaders, and entrepreneurial consultants from around the world—including Australia, Brazil, India, South Africa, and more—the group will explore “U.S. and Global Economic Prosperity” through engagements in Detroit and at Michigan State University in East Lansing. During their visit, delegates will connect with public- and private-sector leaders and explore innovation, entrepreneurship and commercialization, investment and public-private partnerships, and global markets and U.S. competitiveness.
Dr. George Swan III
Chair, Detroit Future City
The opportunity to welcome and work with international delegations visiting Detroit provides a very rich experience. To be engaged in this work is significant and very rewarding. The world is becoming smaller every day and Global Ties Detroit contributes greatly in building strong bridges with people and nations across the globe.
