Institute helps industries enhance business strategies

UW-Madison has launched the Wisconsin E-Business Institute, a campus-wide initiative to help Wisconsin industries develop a better understanding of how Internet-enabled technologies and practices can increase a company's competitive edge in fierce global markets. The institute will complement the University of Wisconsin E-Business Consortium (formerly named the Consortium for Global E-Commerce) collaborative learning activities by conducting multidisciplinary research and leading outreach efforts that enhance e-business practices among the state's core industries, including manufacturing, distribution, healthcare and finance. For more information on institute projects, see www.uwebi.org.
