Brian Fazio Creation Project Minnesota Marketplace for Entrepreneurs

They created products that could help the local economy grow...Three recipients today received the 2009 Brian Fazio Creation award.The winners created a refrigerator space saver, a can opening device, and an additional shelf for ladders.The awards not only recognize creators that try to improve existing products, but also help stimulate the local economy.Jonathan Zierdt says, "All of these are products that can be produced by local vendors, supplies, and manufacturers. That's in effect then how business grows within the community. Individuals in the community begin to manufacture products for these individuals."Named for community economic development advocate Brian Fazio, the program connects start-up and growing businesses with the resources they need to succeed including office space and funding. - KEYC TV, Mankato MN - February 23, 2009 at 3:05pm
