In September 2018, the Detroit Regional Chamber launched Let’s Detroit to increase the retention of college graduates leaving the state by 1% each year and engage those who wish to return or move to the Detroit region. This effort helps achieve the Chamber’s broader goal of increasing postsecondary education attainment in the region to 60% by 2030.
With a focus on the region’s signature industry, automotive and mobility, Let’s Detroit also offers employers an opportunity to directly engage recent graduates and young professionals as part of their talent recruitment and retention efforts. In addition, Let’s Detroit serves as a resource for young talent looking to relocate to the Detroit area, offering information on job opportunities, communities to live in, and ways to get involved in the region.
