Each team is required to make a 10-minute presentation (followed by a 5-minute Q&amp;A). Teams are not expected to present concrete solutions — only concepts.The showcase opens with keynote speaker Antoine Bryant, Co-Managing Director of Gensler Detroit (former Director of Planning and Development for the City of Detroit). Team presentations and social to follow. Space is limited!
