2026 National Champions
In November 2026, the UWW Enactus team will represent the United States of America at the Enactus World Cup in São Paulo, Brazil competing on the global stage alongside over 30 other teams from around the world.
Enactus UW-Whitewater presented two ventures: E3 and RenewTowns - Guatemala
RenewTowns-Guatemala is a community revitalization project that partners with local leaders to promote small entrepreneurs to boost economic development and improve residents’ quality of life. We partnered ProChapina and the YangWard Foundation to support 6 women in launching businesses.
The Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Engine was formed from the RenewTowns Adjacent Possible. It opens doors for individuals, communities, and entire regions. We activate local economies by supporting entrepreneurs, connecting stakeholders, and strengthening access to funding, training, and local networks.
