Gov. Tony Evers, in coordination with the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC), is kicking off a trade and investment mission to Europe to promote exports and international investments in Wisconsin, highlight the state’s growing biohealth sector, and kick off the 50th anniversary of Wisconsin’s sister-state relationship with Hessen, Germany. The trade mission will build upon Gov. Evers and the Evers Administration’s efforts to bolster international trade efforts, promote state exports, and ensure Wisconsin’s vital industries, businesses, families, workforce, and economy continue to thrive.

“During a time of global trade uncertainty and chaos and trade wars out of Washington, maintaining our strong relationships with our global partner has never been more important to ensure continuity and certainty for our local businesses, regional economies, and communities. I am excited to continue building and growing these critical connections and relationships with our partners to ensure the continued growth of Wisconsin’s economy,” said Gov. Evers. “We are also thrilled to celebrate 50 years of Wisconsin’s sister-state relationship with Hessen, Germany. The relationship between Wisconsin and Hessen has remained strong for five decades thanks to our shared values, common experiences, and excellent working partnerships. I’m honored to represent Wisconsin at this historic moment for our two states and to promote Wisconsin businesses to current and potential partners around the world.”
