This year, MGH decided to honor our humble beginnings by creating a contest to help one Maryland-based small business start 2013 off with a bang,” commented MGH President, Andy Malis. “Maryland has a stellar entrepreneurial spirit, so we are excited to see what’s out there and to give a boost to one lucky winner who has what it takes to make it big.”
