Every local business deserves to be found
Great businesses should not be overlooked because they have a smaller marketing budget or less online visibility. We help Metro Detroit businesses get discovered by more people in the communities they serve.
For Metro Detroit. For Michigan businesses.
About Detroit Found
Detroit Found is a community-driven initiative with a simple belief: every Michigan business should have access to the visibility, opportunities, and resources it needs to grow.
We are starting here in Metro Detroit — helping local businesses get discovered, find relevant funding opportunities, strengthen their digital and physical presence, and connect with more of the people and opportunities around them.
Every business deserves the tools to grow
We believe useful digital tools, visibility, and growth resources should be accessible to businesses of every size — from a brand-new neighborhood business to a company that has served Michigan for generations.
Opportunity should be easier to access
Funding programs, grants, contracts, community resources, and growth opportunities can be difficult to discover. Detroit Found works to bring those opportunities closer to the businesses that can benefit from them.
Our mission
When local businesses grow, our communities grow with them.
Metro Detroit is built on small businesses, family businesses, independent operators, entrepreneurs, and people who decided to build something of their own. Yet too many great local businesses remain difficult to find, miss funding they may qualify for, or lack access to the digital resources that can help them compete.
Detroit Found exists to help close that gap. We want to make it easier for local businesses to be seen, supported, discovered, and connected with real opportunities for growth — whether that means a new customer finding them for the first time, discovering a grant or funding program, improving their digital presence, or simply having a stronger connection to their community.
Our goal is bigger than building a directory. We want Detroit Found to become a useful piece of local infrastructure for business owners and the communities that support them.
