This week I headed up to Mackinac Island for the Mackinac Policy Conference. It was a great couple of days getting to meet policy makers, investors and leaders in the community to talk about solutions for moving our state forward. Awesome to watch our very own Dan Gilbert speak with Dennis W. Archer, Jr., ESQ. about how we continue to grow #Detroit and the region. I also had the opportunity to have some great conversations, discussing my early days at Rocket Companies and the excitement around Detroit with Guy Gordon, Lloyd Jackson and Jamie Edmonds at WJR 760 AM, as well as joining a panel focused on one of my favorite topics: #AI and business. Alastair (Alex) Rampell kicked off our session with his deep dive into what AI is and how its adoption is quickly becoming the ante to succeed in business. Then KC Crain, Ann Marie Sastry, Greg Williams and I had a great conversation about how AI is turbocharging our businesses in different ways. Thank you to my fellow panelists, Alex and all those who organized this conference, like Suzanne Shank, for giving us a platform and facilitating these important conversations.
Thank you for sharing our story & the role AI will play in shaping the future . It’s an exciting time for Detroit and the entire Great Lakes Region!
The horizon certainly is bright; from the Detroit waterfront, and coast to coast as Rocket continues to reshape, refactor, and reimagine the possibilities. It's humbling to be part of this amazing journey!
Great insights shared here. Customer-centricity definitely stands out as a fundamental principle. In our experience, putting the customer first not only ensures relevance but also builds long-term loyalty. How have you seen customer feedback directly influence a successful campaign?
It's so important to be a part of events like this. It was a great opportunity for policy makers to hear directly from business leaders like Rocket Companies and learn how we are making an impact with AI and technology. You represented Rocket well!
Varun, you are living your best life. Love that for you! So excited for you!
Great meeting you briefly — see you around town!
Inspiring!
