Discovery World at Pier Wisconsin has positioned itself fairly well despite a challenging economy. According to Joel Brennan, president and chief executive officer, help from partners such as Rockwell Automation Inc., Johnson Controls Inc., The Pabst Theater, Riverside Theater and Bartolotta‘s catering has allowed the organization to do more with less and continue celebrating creativity and innovation through its events and exhibits.
