WISCONSIN State Incentives
Wisconsin's Technology Zone Program is designed to help
stimulate the growth of businesses in Wisconsin's high-technology
sectors. Eight zones have been designated in the state, and $5 million
in income tax credits has been allocated to each zone. Tax credits
will be made available to high-technology businesses locating or
expanding in a designated Technology Zone.
The Enterprise Development Zone Program provides tax incentives
to new or expanding businesses whose projects will affect distressed
areas. Projects must affect distressed areas suffering from high
unemployment, low incomes, declining population, declining property
values, and plant closings.
The Customized Labor Training (CLT) Program is designed
to assist companies that are investing in new technologies or manufacturing
processes by providing a grant of up to 50% of the cost of training
employees in the new technologies. The program's primary goal is
to help Wisconsin manufacturers maintain a workforce that is on
the cutting-edge of technological innovation.
