How’s the business climate in Michigan to attract businesses from out of state? The Detroit Regional Partnership and the Michigan Economic Development Corporation met with national site selectors in Detroit this week to learn more about that. Consumers Energy CEO Garrick Rochow told Michigan News Network Michigan is doing a lot of great things.

“We’re cranking out great graduates in engineering and technology and automation, which can be great for the industrial setting, and much of that’s built on our history of automotive, but it’s much more diverse today,” Rochow said. “Another thing is we have amazing what I call craft labor.”

Rochow says we’ve got great things going on in mobility, electric vehicles, and clean energy. He said that helps position Michigan as a leading state.
