CFE’s second annual Detroit Immersion Trek: Coming Winter 2017

LAST YEAR, DTREK BROUGHT 49 STUDENTS TO 10 OF DETROIT’S LEADING STARTUPS BEFORE HOSTING A RECEPTION FOR 110 OF THE CITY’S ENTREPRENEURIAL ALUMNI. SEE THEIR JOURNEY HERE.

You’ve probably heard about the incredible innovation and advancement in new business and technology that’s happening in Detroit; but have you actually seen it? Have you really gotten an inside look at the companies making moves in the city? Within the walls of the trendy re-designed lofts and warehouses, startups are hard-at-work creating technology that not only helps solve problems in the world, but also directly and positively impacts the local economy they are growing in. Join the Center for Entrepreneurship to be immersed in the entrepreneurial and innovative culture that has taken over Detroit.

On the D-Trek, you will spend the day touring the city, interacting with startups, working with tech companies and finish the trip mingling with the best U-M alumni and entrepreneurs working in the city.
