BioForward Wisconsin, a biohealth membership association serving more than 230 member companies, displayed the strength of Wisconsin’s biohealth industry in a recent 2022 WI Biohealth Economic Impact Report. Building on the momentum of the report, the organization is thrilled to announce the election of seven new board members and a newly elected executive committee, to continue building upon this industry’s success.
