Thanks to Ed Bailey, Jason Slade and Lisa Cooper for organizing the Great Lakes Blue Tech Challenge, which kicked off today with team formation. The technology-based innovation challenge and pitch competition, focused on the issues facing the Great Lakes, is the sequel to last year’s AquaHacking event. Both are aimed at cultivating entrepreneurship in the new blue economy and fostering the formation of companies that will eventually occupy the Freshwater Research and Innovation Center in Greilickville.
