The city of Detroit has been working to embrace various technologies and channels of social media since the Duggan administration took over. Previously, [we brought you the story of how Detroit’s using data to improve the city’s transparency with the public](http://www.dailydetroit.com/2015/06/02/opening-detroits-formerly-closed-doors-using-the-power-of-open-data/). But Thursday is a chance for you, the public, to weigh in and ask questions.

From 11:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m., there will be two leaders available to chat about [Motor City Match](http://www.dailydetroit.com/2015/08/13/motor-city-match-picks-top-properties-new-business/) and business development in Detroit.

Michael Forsyth is the Business Development Manager for the Detroit Economic Growth Corporation. Forsyth has played some key roles as of late, including in the DEGC’s REVOLVE pop-up program that has helped along various businesses like [Paramita Sound](http://www.dailydetroit.com/2014/11/23/detroits-new-record-man-andrey-douthard-finds-groove-paramita-sound/).

Jill Ford is a Special Advisor to Mayor Duggan, and her focus has been startups and business development as of late.

If you’re on Twitter, all you have to do to follow along is use the hashtag #DetGovChat and ask your questions and interact using that hashtag. The official city of Detroit Twitter account is [@DetroitCityGov](http://www.twitter.com/DetroitCityGov?ref=dailydetroit.com).
