Jim Doyle, governor of the U.S. state of Wisconsin, led a trade delegation of investors from his state to the Czech Republic in November 9 to November 13, 2005 meant to increase trade between the two economies.
The mission focused on representatives from manufactures of industrial machinery, environmental and pollution-control equipment, medical devices and value-added food products. There are also several Wisconsin companies with operations in the Czech Republic that the Governor met.
