The Michigan Office of Outdoor Recreation Industry, along with the Outdoor Recreation Roundtable and MEDC’s Pure Michigan Business Connect, hosted the first Outdoor Industry Supplier Summit on March 23, 2021. This no-cost, virtual event highlighted key industry trends and provided a platform for supply chain matchmaking between Michigan product and service suppliers and the outdoor recreation industry. Additionally, attendees were able to participate in an educational webinar, networking opportunities and one-on-one buyer/supplier meetings.

The second video is the lunch presentation from Michigan outdoor entrepreneur David Ollila.
