Improving food access and a return to local
from The Upswing
This week on The Upswing, host Jeff Sherman explores innovation in food access, co-working, and the future of communities.

Then, longtime guest Steve Glynn of Experience Milwaukee shares lessons from transforming the Wantable Café into a co-working hub, insights from a recent tech tour of Phoenix, and thoughts on where Milwaukee’s innovation ecosystem is headed. The episode wraps with a discussion about return-to-office trends and why a meaningful “return to local” may have the greatest impact. 🎙️ The Upswing is presented by Horicon Bank.
