2010 Wind Energy Speaker Series - UW School of Business

The University of Wisconsin School of Business and the City of Sun Prairie Office of Economic Development announce the Wind Energy Speaker Series to be held on Fridays during Summer 2010. This speaker series grows out of the "CleanTech Thought Leaders Community Forums" that Tom Eggert has been offering for the last two years.

Because of the growing interest and expertise in the wind industry sector in Wisconsin, this series will focus on the Wind Sector opportunities and obstacles for the summer.

Speakers will present most Fridays from 1:00 - 2:15 pm in room 5120 of Grainger Hall. The companies that will be presenting include Horizon Wind, Energy Composites, Tower Tech, Mortenson Construction and others. A full schedule for the summer will be provided.

The first speaker will be on Friday, June 18th when Tom will provide a broad overview of the wind sector, the growth of jobs in companies that supply the wind sector, and the efforts that Wisconsin is putting into attracting wind companies to Wisconsin. There will also be time to draw on knowledge that participants will bring to the sessions.

Please feel free to forward this to others that may be interested. If you anticipate attending the session on June 18th, please register at:


There is no cost, but we would like to make sure that the room will accommodate all that sign up.
