You must sign up in advance to save a seat. The event is free, however this month we ask that you bring a canned good or donation for Gleaner’s Community Food Bank. It is the season of giving, after all.

The topic is the building businesses that keep the young and the restless put in metro Detroit.

Speakers
will include:

• Brian Balasia, founder of Digerati Solutions — a fast-growing Detroit-based tech company that builds electronic medical records for hospitals and private practices.
• Ross Sanders of Bizdom U — a business incubator started by Dan Gilbert.

The event is at the Russell Industrial Center,
1600 Clay, in the Motor City Movie House. Find the door marked 1604
Clay, and the elevator operator will take you to the 5th floor. Sign in
is at 5 p.m. Presentations start at 5:30. Networking and a reception
will follow the hour-long
presentation.

The event is sponsored by the Michigan State Housing Development Authority and Model D, and is graciously being hosted by the Boydell Group and the Russell Industrial Center.

And also a big thanks to the good people at Paxahau, who are handling the sound.
