Michigan’s Talent
Action Team

Talent is our Top Priority

Michigan’s talented workforce and exceptional educational institutions make our state a top choice for employers looking to grow their business and employees looking to level-up their career. That’s why MEDC and our robust network of partners have launched the Talent Action Team (TAT).

As a supportive concierge-level service for strategic business partners, TAT connects employers to Michigan jobseekers, education partners, and training providers to help you build the workforce you need to achieve success. The EV and Mobility industry is just the first of Michigan’s future-of-tech industries in which we’re playing matchmaker, so keep an eye for even more to come.
