BrightStar, with the assistance of an entrepreneurship support grant from Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC), is leading the effort across the state.

Several individuals or teams of individuals have the opportunity to pitch their best business idea to a panel of judges while substantive connections and networking occurs between attendees.
