Competitive Wisconsin is making a difference.

In 2010, Competitive Wisconsin sponsored the Be Bold Wisconsin Study which provided the foundation for a number of important economic development and business climate recommendations, which were embraced by the current governor and the Wisconsin Legislation.

As we celebrate our 30th Anniversary, Competitive Wisconsin will continue to support the execution of policies that will usher in a new and prosperous decade in Wisconsin. We share the goal of creating 250,000 new jobs for the state and we have a strategic vision—Be Bold: The Wisconsin Prosperity Strategy.

As we move forward toward our goal, we’ll be actively sharing news and events with our members and our statewide community.
