Speaking at the 2015 Midwest U.S.-Japan Association Conference in Tokyo this week, Gov. Rick Snyder discussed how Michigan is helping companies create more jobs and is eager to build upon its longstanding relationships with Japanese businesses.
“We have come to open new doors for trade and business between Michigan and Japan,” Snyder said. “Michiganders build great products that we can export, and our state is a prime place for companies to locate and grow. We see many great opportunities ahead for all of us to do more business together.”
Snyder’s remarks were delivered during the conference’s opening session. The event was attended by several governors from Midwestern states along with Japanese officials and business leaders.
Highlighting Michigan’s strong presence in the global economy, Snyder urged foreign business owners to consider investing in the state. The governor explained how Michigan is currently positioned to become a top 10 state for economic growth, job creation, as well as quality of life.
“In the past five years, hundreds of companies, both domestic and international, have invested in our state’s success,” he said. “We have reinvented Michigan through commonsense reforms, and we’re moving forward with a new economic climate that is attractive to businesses making growth and investment decisions. We’re also helping connect businesses with schools and colleges so students graduate with in-demand skills, building a talented workforce.”
