How Leelanau is leading the way for Michigan in high-tech, last-mile broadband?

With a County Commission that gets the big picture and invests in kids, seniors, small businesses, families and the future. With leaders who understand the power of partnerships and how true engagement and inclusiveness happen, building solidarity around doing the right thing for the right reasons. Through vigorous, old-fashioned work that has people on the ground, on paved and dirt roads, up and down the hills, valleys and dunes along Lake Michigan, one of the most beautiful places anywhere.

Find out why and how Leelanau County, with a population of just over 22,000, has become a shining star for building a strategy for connecting everyone with the tool they need to connect with the rest of the world and, yes, their neighbors and schools. Noted business journalist Amy Lane captures it all for Venture North Funding and Development.
