Wisconsin is known for its abundant natural resources and dairy farms. And it’s true, Wisconsin’s top industries certainly include agriculture, from cheese to mink pelts, ginseng, and forestry. Plentiful food companies mean related industries also thrive here. These include organic agriculture innovations, logistics, supply chain, and manufacturing. Some of the biggest food companies make their homes here, and with regionally-grown foods, transform farm products into products that are ready to distribute internationally.
With thousands of freshwater lakes, including some Great ones, freshwater technology is also hot in Wisconsin. Water purification startups are plentiful in Wisconsin, like Biolonix, Stonehouse Water Technologies, and Microbe Detectives, which analyzes water for the DNA of pathogens to keep on top of public health threats.
