SaviLinx, InSphero Named Most Innovative Businesses of 2016
MRRA Honors pair of Brunswick Landing Companies at Annual Dinner
The Midcoast Regional Redevelopment Authority (MRRA), the organization managing the transition of the former Naval Air Station Brunswick (NASB) from military to civilian use, recognized two Brunswick Landing companies for innovative business practices at the MRRA annual meeting and dinner held at the Hilton Garden Inn on Wednesday, Nov. 16th.
InSphero, a Swiss biotech firm with its U.S. headquarters located at TechPlace, was honored as most innovative micro business.
Both companies have grown rapidly since opening their Brunswick Landing businesses and have plans to significantly increase their workforces in the future.
Interestingly, both companies are headed by Brunswick natives.
“We’re pleased to see so much innovation happening at Brunswick Landing and the Topsham Commerce Park,” MRRA Executive Director Steve Levesque said. “We’re living up to our name — Maine’s Center for Innovation with companies like SaviLinx and InSphero helping to lead the way. These two companies epitomize the types of innovative and creative entrepreneurs that have chosen Brunswick Landing and the Topsham Commerce Park as their business location.”
