Program Format

Beginning at 5:00pm is a networking portion that lasts until about 5:45pm.  At that time the moderator, a member of the steering committee will invite up to four co-panelists to each give a presentation on the monthly topic.

After each of the presentations there will be an interactive question and answer session with audience participation.

The Michigan Energy Forum meets the first Thursday of the month (except January & July) at SPARK Central, 330 E. Liberty in downtown Ann Arbor from 5-7 p.m.
