Oakland Thrive

Our commitment to equity is steadfast in #OaklandCounty. Our recent #DiverseConnections purchasing event will help us better serve our residents and level the playing field for women, veteran and minority-owned businesses seeking government contracts.🔗

Last week, we welcomed business leaders, government officials, and the Oakland County community for the 40th Annual Oakland County Economic Outlook Luncheon. We appreciate everyone who attended the luncheon, and a warm thank you to the local small business owners and panelists.
