The Maryland Business Innovation Association (MBIA) has partnered with the Maryland Department of Commerce to launch the inaugural Maryland Business Innovation Challenge, which will aim to break down barriers and create opportunities for collaboration between Maryland’s corporate and innovation communities.
Betsy O’Neill Collie, senior director of operations and programming for MBIA, said the challenge is aimed at companies looking to “to tap into the kinds of brilliance we have in Maryland.” As opposed to other kinds of challenges, such as startup pitch competitions, O’Neill Collie said this will offer the chance for more direct business collaborations.
