Johnson will manage the operations of the Milwaukee County Research Park and the Technology Innovation Center, the Research Park’s full-service business incubator. Johnson was formerly the executive director and business incubation program manager for the Whitewater University Technology Park and Innovation Center. He has a background in aeronautical engineering and is a certified aircraft engine mechanic. “Mark’s deep understanding of all things mechanical and past experience made him the perfect candidate for the job of fostering innovation and technology-based economic development in the region,” said Bill Mastoris WEC Energy Group executive vice president and chairman of the Research Park board.
