Michigan State University (MSU) and Capital region leaders recently developed a website to market the Capital region and help attract new employees to the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) project.
According to excerpts from the article:
“This Web site sends a clear message throughout the world that the Greater Lansing region is one of the most livable, affordable, culturally diverse and exciting regions anywhere,” said Tim Daman, president and CEO of the Lansing Regional Chamber of Commerce.
The Web site uses the theme "Greater Lansing—Where it All Comes Together," and features detailed information on schools, transportation, housing, major employers, healthcare, and cultural attractions in the region. The Web site places special emphasis on growing sectors of the regional economy including cutting edge technology, advanced manufacturing and the financial and insurance sectors.
“For FRIB to realize its full potential as a world-competitive laboratory, we must be able to recruit the best scientists and researchers to test, build and operate the facility,” said Denyse Ferguson, president and CEO of Lansing Economic Area Partnership Inc., which managed the design of the website. “This Web site gives potential FRIB employees and their families an opportunity to get a feel for what our region is really all about.”
