More than $231 million was raised by 127 early-stage companies in the state last year, making it the second-highest fundraising total on record, according to a report from the Wisconsin Technology Council.

The $231 million raised in 2017 was 16 percent less than the state’s record, set in 2016. That year, more than $276 million was raised by Wisconsin early-stage companies, the report said. Read the full story here.
