A Conference Advancing a Generational Opportunity for Economic Growth
Presented by High Speed Rail Alliance and New Land Enterprises
This is the launch of a statewide effort to develop strong intercity rail connections throughout Wisconsin.
Wisconsin is a critical economic powerhouse of the Midwest region. A robust network of fast, frequent, and affordable trains would support the state’s goals in becoming a competitive force in the global economic market. But in order for Wisconsin to take full advantage of this opportunity, we need to set higher expectations and THINK BIG.
Attendees will be equipped with actionable steps and a community of stakeholders to set these projects up for success.
