Good news, dudes. A report released Tuesday by the Economic Development
Coalition of Southeast Michigan on business attraction and expansion
successes
during 2007 said four big ones were invested into the
region. Nope, not $4, or thousand, or million - but $4 billion!
The investment brought new projects, new jobs, and the retainment of current jobs. Bravo SE Michigan. Keep it up.
Excerpt:
During that period, EDCSEM member agencies engaged in business
activity expected to yield a total of 117 new projects representing $4

The total number of jobs created in 2007 was 16,610 with an
additional 9,552 jobs retained as a result of these investments. The

rather a snapshot of growth and development from the region's largest
economic development organizations.
