Keeping Wisconsin and the United States competitive in our global economy is a challenge. But at UW-Milwaukee, a team of faculty and students are engaged in a special program that may be the key to our economic future.
It is called the Student Startup Challenge - a project that promotes the work of young entrepreneurs who have ideas that are being turned into new products and businesses.
This week, we begin a special two part series on the program as we hear from the students themselves who are engaged in this unique entrepreneurship program. Joining host Tom Luljak in the studio are Brian Thompson, President of the UWM Research Foundation; IlyaAdeev, Assistant Professor in Mechanical Engineering; and students Sammy Goodrich, Dustin Hahn, Sylvia Wilson and Jeremy Tiedt.
