Economic development corporations throughout the state work to help train our workforce, promote and assist local businesses, attract new corporations, investors and partners. The Wisconsin Economic Development Association works to make their job easier.

By bringing everyone together to share best practices, identify opportunities, and build on successes, WEDA has been making an impact throughout the state and has over 400 members! WEDA also lobbies the governor and legislature to pass pro-business policies.
