Welcome to UW-MANIAC!

What is UW-MANIAC? UW-MANIAC (Madison Area Network for Innovation & Collaboration) represents a network of continued collaborative learning and growth. This unique partnership includes a diverse group of UW-Madison departments and academic perspectives, as well as those from the private and non-profit sector. We host several events a year around a wide variety of topics, including the “Innovation and Collaboration Learning CafĂ© Series," a creative learning space that teaches creativity tools in an applied manner, a "Breakfast Series" in which members share inspiring ideas and creative approaches to work, and other opportunities to meet and share ideas, both through face-to-face conversation and virtual dialogue. Feel free to utilize this online community to share reflections, ask questions, incubate an idea, and re-connect with those friendly faces from the other events.

"Innovation & Evolution in Wisconsin's Artisanal Cheese Industry"
With Laurie Greenberg, Cultural Landscapes, LLC
Thursday, Feb 5th, 8:00 – 9:30am

Description: Tremendous growth in the demand for artisanal cheese in the U.S. has created a Renaissance for the industry. How has Wisconsin, America’s Dairyland for 100 years, met this challenge? Laurie will share her ‘behind the scenes’ experience helping Wisconsin’s industry meet the market.
