KENOSHA, Wis. — [August 4, 2026] — Kenosha Innovation Neighborhood today announced Upload Partners as its newest tenant partner at the Kenosha Innovation Center, bringing a growing, locally founded creative marketing and content company into the region’s expanding innovation ecosystem.
Founded in Kenosha in 2019, Upload Partners began with expertise in live streaming, videography and remote broadcast production. Over the past five years, the company has evolved into a full-service marketing partner providing video production,
photography, digital marketing, social media, public relations, creative services and brand storytelling.
The company’s move to the Kenosha Innovation Center marks the beginning of its next phase of growth, with an expanded focus on serving businesses and nonprofit organizations as an integrated, outsourced marketing team.
“Upload Partners represents exactly the kind of company we want growing at KIN,” said Kelly Armstrong, president of Kenosha Innovation Neighborhood. “They are innovative, entrepreneurial and deeply committed to this community. Their ability to help organizations communicate ideas, build brands and connect with audiences will also make them a valuable resource for the founders, businesses and community partners working throughout the KIN ecosystem.”

Upload Partners is built around the belief that every company and organization has a story worth telling. Rather than approaching its work as a traditional production vendor, the company partners with clients to develop marketing strategies and content designed to build credibility, strengthen relationships and support business growth.
“This move is about more than office space. It’s about being in proximity to the ideas, founders and companies shaping this region’s future. The KIC gives our team a chance, and the next generation of Kenosha creatives, a real front-row seat to that growth,” said Miles Cooksy, VP of Operations, Upload Partners.
Upload Partners has also made talent development a central part of its mission. The company is committed to providing emerging creative and marketing professionals with opportunities to develop their skills, take ownership of meaningful projects and build careers in Southeast Wisconsin.
“The creative economy is an important part of a thriving innovation district,” Armstrong said. “Companies need more than great technology or a strong product. They need the ability to clearly communicate their value, attract talent and reach customers. Upload Partners brings those capabilities directly into the building and strengthens the resources available to our entire community.”
The Kenosha Innovation Center serves as the anchor of the 107-acre Kenosha Innovation Neighborhood and brings together entrepreneurs, established businesses, educational institutions and community partners. The center offers flexible office space, coworking, programming and opportunities for collaboration focused on entrepreneurship, advanced industry, talent development and regional economic growth.
