The latest Metro Metrics examined data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ annual Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics for 2025 and found the Madison metropolitan area is thriving when it comes to jobs in health, bioscience and technology.  

The data also shows that Madison has numerous jobs in life, physical and social sciences, computer and mathematical occupations, and arts, design, entertainment, sports and media occupations.  
 
Because of the strength of the region’s biohealth ecosystem, the Economic Development Administration designated and funded the greater Madison area as a Biohealth Tech Hub in 2024.
