President & CEO’s Message
Much like small business is the backbone of the American economy, teamwork is the backbone of any successful business. That is especially true with those businesses being recognized by the Michigan Celebrates Small Business Awards Program (see Featured Content, below). To be eligible to receive recognition, a company not only has to meet certain requirements, over a multi-year period, but they are scored against those businesses applying for recognition, that specific year. This year, that meant 500 businesses.
We are proud to work with these companies and are fortunate to have them contributing to our economy and offering quality jobs for our residents. Please join us in congratulating them and thanking them for being an impactful part of our community!
On another congratulatory note, please join us for the 2023 Bay Future Annual
Meeting where we will be recognizing the business expansion and attraction projects that have invested in our community over the past year. We will also be congratulating and recognizing those small businesses that received grant awards through the Bay County Small Business Grant Program. Keynote remarks will be given by J.D. Collins, State Director of the Michigan Small Business Development Center, and small businesses will be gifting attendees with their products and merchandise. Register to attend, below, and join our team of sponsors, partners, and investors in thanks and gratitude!
Happy reading,
-Trevor Keyes, EDFP
