The Honorable, The Legislature:
2009 Wisconsin Act 265 authorized the WiSys Technology Foundation to conduct the Wisconsin Small Company Advancement Program (WiSCAP) and appropriated $2 million in funds under s.

This required report is attached for your information and distribution to appropriate members of the legislature (i.e., JCF and standing committees on Higher Education).
Please contact Dr. Maliyakal John, Managing Director of the WiSys Technology Foundation at (608) 265-2135 if you have any questions related to this report.
Sincerely,
Deborah A. Durcan
