ABOUT THE MFBI SURVEY: Part of this event includes the release of the Michigan Future Business Index Survey. Over 700 small and medium-sized businesses shared their opinions from mid-November to mid-December 2022. 

Since 2006, the Michigan Future Business Index has been conducted twice a year. It is underwritten by Cinnaire, presented by Michigan Business Network, and conducted by Paul King of ROI Insight who has been surveying business leaders. Thanks to the participation of these business leaders we are able to amplify their voices and provide data for business advocacy organizations and policymakers that help Michigan businesses prosper.
