Minnesota Cup Finalists Announced
9/2/2010
Lommen Abdo is again partnering with the Minnesota Cup, a statewide entrepreneurial contest that seeks out and supports Minnesota’s newest and most innovative business ideas.
The Minnesota Cup named its semifinalists on August 18th and Lommen Abdo was both excited and honored to learn that out of over 1000 plans submitted, two of our clients made it the final round! EarthClean was named a finalist in the Technology & Renewable Energy Division, and NivaMed for the BioSciences Division.
The finalists in each category were announced on September 1st, and the Technology & Renewable Energy award went to our client, Minneapolis-based EarthClean Corporation, which has developed an environmentally friendly fire retardant, TetraKO™. They now compete with five other companies for the overall prize to be announced September 13th. Lommen Abdo attorney Brad Lehrman judged the General category this year.
