The Detroit Regional Chamber's annual Mackinac Policy Conference.

Jeffrey Mosher speaks with Aileen Cohen, MEDC Diversity, Equity & Inclusivity Officer, from the lobby of the Chippewa Hotel / Pink Pony on Mackinac Island, while at the 2022 Mackinac Policy Conference.

Hear Aileen and Jeffrey discuss DEI and MEDC's focus on this priority from the #MPC22 click play on the SoundCloud Podcast below.  


In the interview Jeffrey looked to find out:

First Aileen, could you share how MEDC or your role with them is addressing DEI?
 
MEDC sees a value in addressing this in coordination with their overall mission, that's great, can you speak a bit more about its value and place in economic development and keeping Michigan a great place to work?
 
As mentioned we are at the #MPC22, I understand that tomorrow, Thursday, morning, June 2nd, you will be participating in a session labeled Supporting Michigan’s Small Businesses | A Conversation on Supporting Michigan’s Small Businesses with the Executive Vice President of Economic Development Incentives Michele Wildman, Senior Vice President of Entrepreneurship & Innovation Fred Molnar. Can you go into some details of what that will entail?
 
As we wrap this up, what are your initial impressions of this year's conference?
