Abstract: The article presents the vision of various business leaders for reinventing Detroit, Michigan in the wake of Super Bowl. Eric Cedo, executive director of CreateDetroit, regards entertainment as the key for bringing people back. According to him, it's important to invest in creative economy. People come to big cities to be entertained. In President and CEO of Albert Kahn Associates Inc. Stephen Whitne's view, there is need to communicate with the many people who visited Detroit from outside of Michigan to find out if they might entertain opening branch offices or outlets in Detroit. Professor of law at Wayne State University Law School, suggests that Detroit should use the rebuilding of New Orleans as a model.
