Highlights
As the top industry in Wisconsin, manufacturing gets a lot of attention. This breakfast features speakers who can deliver a focused presentation on topics that directly impact the bottom line for manufacturers.
WMC Foundation partners with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation and area chambers of commerce across Wisconsin to host a statewide civics competition. The National Civics Bee® encourages young Americans in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade to engage in civics and contribute to their communities.
The competition, modeled on traditional spelling and geography bees, gives students the chance to win recognition and earn cash prizes by sharing ideas for improving their communities and showing their enthusiasm for civics.
Wisconsin Business World is committed to reach, inspire and engage students from every corner of the state and to teach them the importance of business, entrepreneurship and the free market, all while informing them of economic opportunities in their own communities. Whether in our immersive overnight summer camps, our engaging one-day programs or our motivational classroom talks, our message is simple: Business is a Force for Good.
Wisconsin 2035
WMC Foundation’s Future Wisconsin Project released its “Wisconsin 2035” report to detail the challenges facing Wisconsin’s business community and propose potential solutions for long-term economic growth. The new publication identifies the workforce shortage as the biggest problem facing Wisconsin’s business community. The workforce shortage must be tackled in three ways: attraction, retention and expansion.
