What started out as a dream grew into an exciting new collaboration!

In 2020, Julie and Peter Hewitt set out to expand their wood crafting hobby into a business, and to help with this goal, they sought help from the Platteville Business Incubator.

The Platteville Incubator, now managed by the UW-Platteville Huff Family Innovation Center, provides a roadmap to entrepreneurs to bring their ideas to life. Through workshops, mentorship programs, educational programs, and now prototyping access at Huff, the Platteville Business Incubator hopes to foster a diversity of ideas in our regional business ecosystem.
