Welcome to the
UW System Institute for Business & Entrepreneurship
newsletter. We want to help you enhance the value of Wisconsin, one business at a time.
Last month, we asked "what works in your ZIP code to promote business economic development?"
One effort you shared was theHemp Can Do It! podcast by Wisconsin Hemp Alliance co-founders Larry Konopacki and Kattia Jimenez via WORT-FM. They share a wealth of information about the state's pilot program and the real-life challenges faced by farmers. Keep sending us your ideas!
IEDC: Basic Economic Development Class Sept. 9-12 (CTC's Todd Strother teaches lean start-up methodology and IBE's Mark Lange teaches small business impacts on local economy.)
