M7 Partnership
Our mission is to attract, retain, and grow diverse business and talent in the Milwaukee region.
M7 was established in 2005 to lead business attraction, retention and expansion efforts across southeast Wisconsin. Representing Kenosha, Milwaukee, Ozaukee, Racine, Walworth, Washington and Waukesha counties, M7 helps build our economy by supporting businesses that export goods and services outside the region. These businesses bring new revenue and higher paying jobs into the region. Every job they create has a multiplier effect that leads to more indirect and induced jobs.
M7 is the economic development arm of the Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce (MMAC) -- the region's chamber of commerce.
Market the region for investment
Milwaukee 7 markets the region to attract new companies to Southeast Wisconsin – from just across the state line to around the globe. M7 serves as a one-stop shop to guide companies through the relocation process, from their first visit to grand opening.
Help local businesses expand
M7 partners with economic development organizations throughout the region to find solutions for companies looking to expand, including providing resources to help navigate real estate, financing, talent sourcing, and incentives.
Entrepreneurship
In 2022, the MMAC launched a new initiative to promote startups and entrepreneurship in the Milwaukee region.
