The third annual Wisconsin Economic Summit, set for Oct. 15 and 16 in La Crosse, offers leaders in business, community development, education, and related fields a chance to learn more about how major trends in artificial intelligence (AI), entrepreneurship, and innovation are transforming Wisconsin’s economy.
“Our goal for the summit is to present a different view of the Wisconsin economy than what you would see at other conferences,” said Missy Hughes, secretary and CEO of WEDC, the state’s lead economic development agency. “We are really trying to inspire the attendees and help them understand the breadth and depth of Wisconsin’s economy, recognize the challenges ahead of us, and discover ways to work together to find innovative solutions.”
