Detroit is a complicated city. It has tons of amazing assets but also faces many challenges. One thing is for sure, Detroit is much more than headlines and stereotypes. On this tour you’ll be taken around the city via a climate controlled executive coach led by an expert guide who will provide context and local insight into Detroit's neighborhoods, small businesses and community projects. The goal of this experience is to help attendees understand how Detroit’s history shaped where we are today, connect with what’s happening now and be better equipped to engage in its future.
