Madison, Brookfield make Fortune’s ‘best places’ list (The Business Journal of Milwaukee)

Two Wisconsin cities made this year’s list of “100 Best Places to Live and Launch” as Fortune Small Business this week unveiled its rankings.

Madison was named 46th on the list and Brookfield was 72nd.

“The University of Wisconsin’s flagship campus provides a talented, educated labor pool for startups: Madison boasts an unusually high density of PhDs,” Fortune said of the city. “Entrepreneurs also benefit from tax incentives such as the Angel Investment and Venture Capital Tax Credit, which is available to investors in small tech companies.”
