Saginaw Future 33rd ANNUAL AWARDS Luncheon
Letter from the Chair
As we move into 2025, I am excited to share the progress and momentum driving economic development in Saginaw County. Over the past year, we have seen transformative projects come to life, strengthening our economy and enriching our community.
Investments in advanced manufacturing, renewable energy, and infrastructure have paved the way for sustainable growth. Local businesses are thriving, creating hundreds of new jobs and attracting talent to the region. Significant progress has been made in revitalizing our downtown areas, enhancing quality of life, and fostering innovation. Our collaboration with public and private partners has been the cornerstone of these achievements. From securing grants to facilitating workforce development programs, Saginaw Future remains committed to building a vibrant, inclusive economy.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. I encourage all you to spread the message that we are an incredible Region to be a part of.
