Headlines from The National Summit

A Gathering to Define America's Future


The National Summit will be a clear, strong voice for transformational change at a critical time in our nation’s history.  It is designed to be inclusive, interactive and innovative, and to drive real-world results.  The goal of The National Summit is to bring attention to actions that will improve America’s ability to compete in the 21st century.

The National Summit is taking place during an economic crisis of historic proportions.  It will be convened by the Detroit Economic Club (DEC) on June 15-17, 2009 at Marriott Renaissance Center in Detroit, in the early days of a new administration in Washington.  A unique national conversation, it will engage a cross-sector gathering of prominent business, government and academic leaders in debate and dialogue in four areas of vital importance to America’s future in a global economy:  Technology. Energy, Environment and Manufacturing. Stay tuned to WWJ Newsradio 950 for complete coverage.
