Michigan Economic Outlook Survey
For chambers, business associations, and economic development groups. Make Michigan a great state to grow a business.
About the survey
The Economic Outlook Survey is an online survey that gathers the perspectives of business leaders and entrepreneurs on the economic outlook for their organizations and their economic regions.
In return, each participating association receives a free report on their results as well as the overall results. This program is offered at no charge to promote the value of private-sector growth.
2027 Michigan Economic Outlook Survey
Planning is underway for the next wave. Chambers and associations can register interest to distribute the survey to members and receive localized results.
