Maureen Donohue Krauss, Fm Email and Phone Number
There’s truly no career as rewarding as economic development. I’ve spent over 30 years with my boots on the ground, starting as an intern in the industry and building my way up to an experienced economic development leader. From Michigan to Arizona to Indiana and back to Michigan, I’ve helped communities learn from the past, embrace the present, and find the path forward to a bright future. The Detroit Region is especially near and dear to my heart. I grew up right here in Southeast Michigan, and I’ve seen our community grow into the beautiful, global leader it is today. With driven talent, cutting-edge innovation, and major companies from around the world, there’s simply no better place to do business in the North American market. Now, I’m proud to share that story with the world and help shape the future of the region. At the Detroit Regional Partnership, I lead a team of talented business development professionals with great expertise in everything from site selection to talent solutions. Whether we’re creating jobs or connecting businesses with incentives, companies and communities alike trust our team to find creative solutions to their biggest struggles. Because our team is dedicated to driving the region forward. Key Skills: Non-Profit Management; International Business Attraction; Marketing and Fundraising; Government and Media Relations; Leadership and Team Mentorship; Business Development Project Management; Site Selection Support in the U.S. Market
