GalaxE.Solutions CEO Tim Bryan became something of a star earlier this month at the Detroit Regional Chamber’s annual Mackinac Policy Conference, where he rarely passed up an opportunity tout the benefits of doing business in Detroit as he explained the New Jersey-based IT company’s decision to open an office in the former First Federal of Michigan building at Campus Martius.

GalaxE Solutions Inc., an information technology company that is moving its headquarters to Detroit, is now hiring, according to a story on WWJ. “We’ll be working with the state and local government with regard to job fairs and other training programs and folks should have a real easy time applying,” CEO Tim Bryan said.

He should know: He’s making Detroit an integral piece of his 20-year-old company’s expansion plans, bringing 500 tech jobs to renovated offices in the 1001 Woodward building at Campus Martius. “You get business to locate here and you bring downtown back into play.”
