Like any community in rural Wisconsin, the Chequamegon Bay region wonders what will happen next to its economy. It has attractive assets – such as lake, forest, food and health – but it must leverage these assets in ways that will create more high-paying jobs.
Building on existing assets to grow the tech based economy in northwest Wisconsin is the theme of the fourth annual Lake Superior Technology Conference, to be held Aug. 5-6 in Ashland. The conference is being produced by the Wisconsin Technology Council, the Wisconsin Innovation Network Lake Superior Chapter and other Lake Superior region partners.
