As TechTown celebrates 20 years of supporting Detroit’s entrepreneurs, founders and innovators, we’re proud of the work we’ve done to provide equitable opportunities for all to participate in our programs, take advantage of our resources and leave their mark on Detroit’s economy.
Christianne Malone, chief program officer at TechTown Detroit and assistant vice president for economic development at Wayne State University, is deeply committed to advancing equity across the region through economic development strategies. We recently sat down with Malone, who elaborated on our equity goals and work in Detroit, TechTown’s alignment with Wayne State University in advancing these efforts and more.
