DGi: Happy Birthday to the UW E-Business Consortium (77 Square)

When the UW-Madison E-Business Consortium was formed a decade ago, e-business was just a concept to many.

State business executives found answers – and each other – through the UWEBC, a university-industry partnership that enables Wisconsin companies to collaborate on e-business solutions.

Today, the 60 UWEBC member companies include such state heavyweights as Alliant Energy, Lands’ End, Harley-Davidson, American Family Insurance and CUNA Mutual.

Through conferences, peer groups, workshops and sponsored research projects with UW-Madison faculty, staff and students, these and other state businesses can address and share e-business and information technology challenges, best practices and strategies for success.
