  • What to Expect at Detroit Homecoming XI

    Calling all metro Detroit “expats!”

     

    If you grew up, attended school or worked in metro Detroit, you’re invited to apply to attend Detroit Homecoming XI, Sept. 18-20, 2024.

    This invitation-only immersion in “all things Detroit” is intended to be a catalyst for your re-engagement in your hometown. Meet the “doers” who are part of Detroit’s revitalization and you’re on your own path to support the city.

    There’s no cost to attend; area foundations and corporate sponsors support the initiative so you can listen, learn and participate – and enjoy great food and find new gems in the city along the way.

    Highlights this year:

    • With General Motors Co. moving its headquarters to his new Hudson’s Detroit development, what’s next for Dan Gilbert? He’ll describe his plans on Sept. 20.
    • Detroit was built on waves of immigrants. Can the city’s population grown again by welcoming more today? Experts discuss Sept. 19.
    • Veteran investor Roger Ehrenberg has his own immigration bet – climate migrants. Will weather extremes elsewhere bring more residents to Detroit and to Michigan for better weather and clean water? Hear more Sept. 20.
    • Two of Detroit’s newest architectural gems will take center stage. The opening dinner on Sept. 18 will be at The Shepherd, a repurposed Catholic Church anchoring a neighborhood wide development. And on Friday, our closing program will be at Michigan Central – the long-closed train station Ford Motor Co. revived.
    • On Friday, you’ll have a chance to meet founders of investment-worth early-stage companies taking root in the city.
    • We've got tour experiences set up every afternoon -- art and design, cool companies, talent, sports, neighborhoods, food manufacturing, real estate and more!--to show you Detroit's progress first hand and allow you to meet and speak with Detroiters making it happen!

    Nearly 1,000 expats have attended Detroit Homecoming since 2014. Is this your year?
