One event that I’m very excited to see come to Detroit is Startup Weekend. Shannon Paul, Detroit Red Wings social media guru, is helping to raise funds for this event which will go towards providing food, power strips and extension cords. Check out this interview where she discusses why this event is so important for Detroit.
