College of NJ 2nd Annual Mayo Business Plan Competition Results
We are proud to say that our NJ Small Business Development Center counseled two of the three finalists with their business plans for the competition. We want to thank all students who recognize us as the valuable resource we are to their future business endeavors.
Congratulations to all who participated, especially the winners, M&S Guitars, who were awarded a grand prize of $12,000. Their team has designed a patent-pending lower cost aluminum guitar, and they demonstrated its sound during their presentation. Their mission is "to ensure guitarists are not limited by the size of their wallet, but by the extent of their talent."
