Today, U.S. Senator Herb Kohl, D-Milwaukee, announced that he has directed $300,000 in federal funds to the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee to help establish a research and business mentoring facility to promote the area's freshwater and water-related industry, part of the school's Great Lakes WATER Institute.
The funds for the project were approved by the Senate Appropriations Committee late last week.
Kohl made the announcement for the funding at Water Summit II, a meeting of Milwaukee freshwater business leaders, experts, scientists and researchers, and members of the Greater Milwaukee Committee and Milwaukee 7.
"The freshwater industry holds tremendous promise and potential for the city of Milwaukee, and the surrounding area, in terms of economic and job growth," Kohl said. "With these funds, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, a freshwater research leader, can help establish this new facility that will help businesses grow and secure the city's place as a global capital of this vital industry."
The Greater Milwaukee Committee (GMC) and Milwaukee 7 are hosting Water Summit II today at Discovery World. The GMC and Milwaukee 7 are working to take advantage of Milwaukee's location on Lake Michigan and the presence of water-related firms in the area, to transform the region into the Silicon Valley for water.
