Google Chooses Michigan for Expansion
Google announced this morning that they are opening an office in Michigan and hiring 1,000 new employees. Governor Jennifer M. Granholm (D-MI) and James C. Epolito, President of the Michigan Economic Development Corporation, released a statement on the tax incentives that brough Google to Michigan as well as the economic impact of this move. It's available on-line at http://www.michigan.gov/gov/0,1607,7-168-23442-147032--,00.html
We doubt today's move will have any impact on this November's gubernatorial election. However, if they manage to pull off a couple more of these deals in the coming months, they might be on to something.
