In announcing the initiative, Doyle said the goal is to accelerate the growth of new businesses and lure new investment to the state. “To grow Wisconsin, we must attract investment and support new high-tech, start-up companies,” Doyle said in announcing the initiative. “These businesses will create the bedrock for a knowledge-driven economy and produce the high-paying jobs of tomorrow.”
