The future of the automotive industry and the next chapter of transportation are being created in Michigan.
Proof: Leaders from the automotive industry, technology, transportation, and public-policy gathered in Detroit this week for the “World Mobility Leadership Forum” to discuss the immense economic potential and practical path ahead in the self-driving vehicle revolution.

Below is a sampling of articles that present the major economic implications for Michigan along with the many issues involved in bringing about the greatest transformation of the automotive industry since the invention of the Model T.
