Discover BasBlue

Your home away from home.

BasBlue welcomes people of all backgrounds, ages, genders, and aspirations, offering a secure, diverse, and inclusive environment. Our community is made up of women and nonbinary individuals who are pioneering new paths and spearheading change in Southeast Michigan. While our membership community enjoys full access, we’re proud to open our first floor to the public, inviting everyone to experience a taste of BasBlue’s vibrant atmosphere.

Detroit leads the nation as the top-ranked city for businesses led by underrepresented groups and women. Inspired by these entrepreneurs, we dedicate ourselves to fostering positive change, empowering individuals, facilitating access to mentorship and funding, promoting growth opportunities, and honoring remarkable trailblazers of yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

SUPPORT BASBLUE IN 2025

Since we opened our doors in 2021, BasBlue has helped over 700 women and non-binary individuals each year overcome gender-based inequities, find support, develop professionally, and find a place to belong–and our future is bright.

In 2025, we’re designing experiences that amplify women and non-binary leaders’ potential, and we can’t do it without your help.
