The 12^th annual Wisconsin Tech Summit will be held Monday, March 17 at American Family Field in Milwaukee. Online applications are being accepted from emerging companies through Feb. 21. The goal of the Wisconsin Tech Summit is to bring together major firms and emerging companies in a setting that allows them to meet and explore likely business relationships around technology needs and innovation.

There is no set definition as to what constitutes an emerging company. It can be a startup with a few founders and limited revenue or a small business with several dozen employees and solid revenue. What matters most is whether major firms spot partnership potential when reviewing applications.
