Speaker Event: Doing Business in Downtown Ypsilanti

Last month Concentrate teamed with local blogger Mark Maynard to host the Ann Arbor Exit Interview. It was such a terrific experiemce that we've invited Mark back as our moderator for Doing Business In Downtown Ypsilanti.

For years Ypsilanti has been slowly but surely re-establishing both Depot Town and its downtown as a community and commercial hub. Some businesses come, some go, and some thrive. So, what do things look like day-to-day for those who've found success? What about the new kids on the block? Is downtown Ypsilanti everything they'd hoped it would be? What would they like to see?

We've put together a panel of Ypsi business owners to talk about their triumphs, challenges, opportunities and frustrations. Join us May 2nd at Woodruffs for the discussion by signing up below!
