Description

Welcome back to our quarterly MKE Tech Ecosystem exchange event! Milwaukee is actively growing into a thriving tech destination, but there is much room to grow. We see this moment as an opportunity for our community to shape together. Join the Milky Way Tech Hub and our co-hosts within the "Urban Future Centers," on June 16th to learn how we can continue to leverage technology to decrease racial disparities and grow the city's innovation economy. We will engage with the community and corporate leaders who are actively shaping our ecosystem. The discussions will center on our most pressing items such as the great resignation, workforce development, and the needs of our community. Let your voice be heard and help shape the future of Milwaukee's Tech Ecosystem. Following the core discussion during the event, we will have breakout sessions facilitated by our Urban Future Center partners. See you soon! What is the "Urban Future Center?" American Family has invested 1.2 Million in developing an ecosystem of community spaces located in Milwaukee.
