Local inventors to pitch product to U of M judges

A Minnesota entrepreneur will become $50,000 dollars richer on Monday, Sept. 16. That is just part of the more than $400,000 in cash prizes will be awarded through the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Management MN Cup. The program has grown into the largest statewide startup competition in the country, awarding more than $5.8 million in cash prizes over the past 20 years while supporting more than 26,000 Minnesota entrepreneurs. Among the top nine finalist for the MN Cup are Ashley Mooneyham and Jennie Lynch, the co-founders of Momease Solutions. They joined FOX 9 on the eve of their grand finale pitch to the MN Cup judges, and describe how much this opportunity helps local inventors.
