Group eager to help startups

As the regional economy continues its recovery, a growing number of economic development organizations are working together to foster a new generation of Wisconsin startups that they hope will fuel the state’s economic growth.

“Rather than look at it as there are all these different groups that are doing all these different things, instead we’re starting to really bring people together,” said Joe Kremer, director of Wisconsin Angel Network, a nonprofit group aimed at connecting local businesses with regional investors.

Kremer was one of a handful of panelists who addressed about 80 representatives from the professional services industry Tuesday at University Research Park.
