Thanks to U.S. House representatives Kilpatrick and Conyers and our two U.S. Senators Levin and Stabenow, Detroit Renaissance is in line to receive as much as $200k to fund the Creative Industries Business Accelerator in Detroit. If the federal funds are approved this fall, we may be able to proceed with opening an accelerator in downtown Detroit, hiring a director and providing the networking, training and business services envisioned when the plan was unveiled last year. This would be another project accomplished under our Road to Renaissance plan.
