This contest is for anyone planning or developing an innovative product, process, or software application; has a business with sales less than $500,000; and is located in Lancaster or Lebanon Counties.
The winner of the contest would win up to $50,000 cash as well as a six-month membership to The Candy Factory including workspace. Additionally, the winner will receive a one-year pass to seminars offered by Ben Franklin’s eMarketing Center and a free consultation on how to access federal grant money from Innovation Partnership (valued at $3,000).
