Description
Wisconsin Department of Revenue Secretary Peter Barca is holding an economics and business roundtable at the Portage County Business Council Tuesday December 10th from 1-2:30 pm. Attendees will include leaders from DOR, local government, area businesses and regional economic development organizations.
The agenda includes DOR Secretary Barca outlining recent state business initiatives. Senior state economists will present the latest information on the Wisconsin Economic Outlook, focusing on regional data to Central Wisconsin such as employment levels, personal income, wages and sales tax data. The meeting concludes with a business and economic development roundtable discussion.
Seating is limited so please register. If you have a particular item you would like to discuss during the business roundtable, or that you would like our economists to research and present, please contact Cathy Friedl at cathy.friedl@wisconsin.gov.
This discussion is part of DOR's new program to assist our small business community: Business Development and Government Relations (BDGR).
