About Us

Propel Wisconsin Innovation is a new kind of organization for entrepreneurs. At its heart, we are an advocacy group for all entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial groups throughout the state. In addition, our goal is to help take the best practices already being established and spread them across Wisconsin, filling in the gaps where necessary.

The Propel WI website is designed to be a place where entrepreneurs can connect with one another and learn from other entrepreneurs. If you have an interest in entrepreneurship, please sign up. There's no cost. We will be launching a few new programs this fall so the website will be a good way to keep in touch.

Campus Outreach

Propel WI is building relationships with policymakers, their staffs, and other higher education organizations to inform and influence policy discussions by offering our expertise as a resource. We know and work closely with policymakers to establish credibility and influence legislation and regulatory process by raising awareness of and generating support for the entrepreneur’s most important needs.

Propel WI is developing partnerships with faculty and staff at educational institutions across the state to help promote student groups, such as the Collegiate Entrepreneur Organization, across the UW campuses as well as the sixteen Wisconsin technical colleges, thirteen two-year campuses and numerous private schools across the state.
