In this one, Steve sits down with Kelda Roys for an informative discussion on Kelda's case that Wisconsin's economic future depends on.

About Kelda:

• Kelda is a Wisconsin-born attorney, state senator, and tech founder running for governor.
• She has over two decades of bipartisan legislative wins and a track record of turning big ideas into law.
• She’s a tech entrepreneur who founded a business to make home-buying more affordable, and a champion for Wisconsin’s startup ecosystem advocating for the capital access and policy reforms that help homegrown companies scale without leaving the state.
• She’s also a mom and stepmom of five.

About the episode:

• Kelda makes her case for why she’s the most experienced candidate in the Wisconsin governor’s race and what that experience actually means for the state’s tech and business future.

• She also talks about why Wisconsin keeps losing startups and talent to neighboring states, and the concrete policy fixes she’d push as governor, including a bigger state fund-of-funds for growth-stage companies.

• Her take on building a statewide culture that embraces risk and failure, and why that mindset shift matters as much as any tax credit.

• A candid conversation about healthcare, small business, and what other candidates are getting wrong about economic development.
