The Lower Chippewa Valley in western Wisconsin is primed for growth. Located immediately adjacent to Minneapolis and St. Paul, the region offers a wealth of amenities to companies at a fraction of the cost in one of the Midwest’s fastest growing regions. However, area businesses are not finding the talent they need to fill jobs and grow. While this is a common national problem, west central Wisconsin area leaders are becoming increasingly concerned that this talent shortage may impede the region’s future economic prosperity.
