Ford Motor Company’s Bill Ford puts his bets on an EV future for Michigan
Michigan is still a long way from only seeing electric vehicles on the roads. Truthfully, that may never happen, but one thing Ford Motor Company Executive Chairman Bill Ford is betting on: Michigan will eventually adopt an EV future.
Ford joined WDIV-Channel 4 Anchor Christy McDonald on the Mackinac Policy Conference main stage to talk about the future of EVs at his company and across the state.
They talk about the talent attraction and workforce development that will be necessary to build an EV future, Ford’s continued investments in the state’s automotive industry, and the need for optionality for early and late-stage adopters.
Plus, they talk about the company’s talent pipeline, which is providing opportunities for the state’s higher education graduates.
