Each stage can be further explored on two levels of strategic and tactical. It should be noted that there is a considerable degree of overlap between these three stages, however, they also have distinct characteristics. While each of these stages can stand on its own, they are presented in a suggested sequence under the assumption that each stage represents a level of experience before going on to the next stage.

*Continued development of the overall community of I&E at UWM
As the Innovation and Entrepreneurship (I&E) culture at UWM continues to build and develop a sense of community becomes even more important. As more events are created, and others continued, there will be a large push for more students from diverse branches of academia to participate. UWM has many organizations and programs, but they hardly ever interact outside of their majors. If UWM hopes to grow further, bridges will need to be built between majors. Future events will work to bring in more branches of academia in a way that encourages students to network and work with people outside of their branch of academia.
