As we work aggressively to diversify Michigan’s economy, companies are choosing to invest in our state because of our competitive business climate, skilled workforce and strong public-private partnerships.

On Tuesday, Gov. Granholm announced that our efforts have resulted in 13 job-creating projects, generating 2,747 new jobs, retaining more than 8,000 jobs, and attracting more than $382 million in investment to communities across the state. 

The companies planning expansions in Michigan represent a diverse cross section of traditional and high-tech sectors. What all of these projects have in common is that they demonstrate that companies are choosing Michigan for new growth opportunities despite intense competition from other states and other countries. Our diversification strategy is paying off.
