Michigan Gov. Whitmer Leads Investment Mission to Germany to Attract New Investment
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer on November 12 began a Team Michigan investment mission to Germany to strengthen relationships with one of the state's most important international economic partners, attract new investment, and create good-paying jobs for Michiganders.
The governor's office said Gov. Whitmer and Michigan Economic Development Corporation CEO Quentin L. Messer, Jr. will attend SEMICON Europa, Europe's largest combined electronics design and manufacturing event, meet with companies to underscore the benefits of working in Michigan, and engage with German government officials to advance opportunities for economic collaboration. The mission builds on Michigan's sustained engagement with Germany and efforts to position the state as a leading destination for investment in semiconductors, advanced manufacturing, mobility, defense, and other emerging industries.
Whitmer said Michigan is open for business and that Germany has been a critical partner in Michigan's economic success, with companies investing billions in the state and creating jobs. Messer said relationships matter in economic development and that sustained engagement with international partners is essential to Michigan's long-term competitiveness.
