State News Article

Submitted by SpotlightMichigan on Monday, February 15, 2010No Comment

Spotlight Michigan is in the news again Monday 2/15.   See the article here.

Over the weekend, The State News interviewed Spotlight staff members to learn more about Spotlight’s mission and research.

NewspaperMedia and Technology Director Anthony Mianecki is quoted saying “It’s no secret in Michigan we’re hemorrhaging young talent.”

To combat this trend, Research Director Jennifer Seager argues, “The first step Michigan needs to take is to find a way to attract recent college graduates,” Seager said. “Without the new creative minds in society, there’s not going to be any economic churn, change in the economy.”

Recognizing Michigan’s shortcomings, Spotlight Michigan seeks to promote a more innovative and entrepreneurial culture in Michigan by cultivating and spotlighting young, talented, and entrepreneurial communities for the new economy.

Help  keep the conversation going, and look  for updates on our April event soon.
