Talent

The Detroit Regional Chamber partners with a number of organizations which can provide direct access to talent in the region.

  • Detroit Drives Degrees
    When a region’s residents are well-educated, the entire region benefits – with a stronger overall business climate, as well as higher incomes and property values.

  • Discover. Engage. Transform.
    The Detroit Regional Chamber’s Discover. Engage. Transform. program educates interns on why Michigan – particularly the metro Detroit region – is the ideal place to live and work.

  • Leadership Detroit
    Leadership Detroit is a valuable experience and a powerful program that helps emerging and existing leaders in Southeast Michigan develop leadership skills and knowledge of regional issues.

  • Regional Talent
    The Detroit region is booming with higher education resources that feed the growing need for high-level talent.
