EAST LANSING ? Michigan State University College of Law?s Small Business & Nonprofit Clinic and the Wayne State University Business and Community Law Clinic will host Detroit small business owners for a Detroit Entrepreneur Social on Wednesday, Aug. 22 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at the Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights at Wayne State University.
Entrepreneurs are invited to assist with the Michigan Applied Public Policy Research Project to help identify legal and government barriers to entrepreneurial activity and job creation in the state. The event will bring together small business owners from a broad range of occupations to conduct a survey and investigate the regulations firsthand.
Clinic faculty and students are conducting the study, with a focus on legal barriers to entrepreneurship that affect Detroit?s small business owners and hinder Michigan?s ability to be more business friendly. The project is a multi-dimensional alliance between the academic, practitioner, government, and nonprofit legal business service communities. Student clinicians, faculty, staff, and project partners will review major city and state regulations that impact small businesses to determine whether they achieve a legitimate government objective without unduly burdening business activity.
The data collected through the project will be analyzed and presented to the newly elected 2013 Michigan Legislature and local lawmakers to inform them of regulatory hurdles and offer relevant reformation dialogue on making Detroit ? the state?s urban core and most populous city ? more business friendly.
Hors d? oeuvres and refreshments will be served. For more information and to RSVP, contact MAPPR?Project Manager Andr? Dandridge.
