BRE Program

The Heart of Wisconsin Chamber of Commerce's Business Retention and Expansion (BRE) program is dedicated to enhancing the competitiveness and promoting the growth of businesses in the region. Comprising a team of Economic and Business Development Professionals, the BRE initiative engages in one-on-one visits with local companies to identify opportunities and address challenges that may impact growth and prosperity.
