Iron Mountain entrepreneur takes home state award

Business competitions are the lifeblood of entrepreneurship, and the Great Lakes Entrepreneur's Quest is one of the best in the state. So it's pretty cool that a U.P. entrepreneur won one of the state awards in the competition.

Excerpt: The Great Lakes Entrepreneur’s Quest presented awards to the mid-year winners in its 12th year of the statewide business plan competition Tuesday night at the ACE’12 entrepreneurship event in Ann Arbor.

More than 200 Michigan-based entrepreneurial ventures were registered for the competition, which attracts a wide-range of innovation-base businesses in fields such as alternative energy, information technology and software, advanced manufacturing, homeland security, medical devices and life sciences.
