The Cubby takes top prize in Maine s Top Gun awards

The award includes a $25,000 top prize.  The Cubby is an online marketplace for art made by college students. By shopping on the Cubby, consumers support emerging artists and purchase one-of-a-kind pieces of art at an affordable price. The entire purchase price goes directly to the artist, with no hidden fees. The Cubby s COO, Matteo Cugno, who just finished his junior year at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, accepted the Top Gun award on behalf of the startup. The Cubby is led by CEO Josh Kim, who just finished his junior year at Colby College. Cugno was among eight entrepreneurs that competed in the statewide pitch contest.

New program steps up internships for UMaine graduate students

Many colleges offer summer internship programs for their undergraduate students. Now the University of Maine Graduate and Professional Center is making that opportunity more accessible to graduate and professional students in the University of Maine School of Law, the University of Maine Graduate School of Business, and the University of Southern Maine’s Muskie School of Public Service.  The Maine Center Graduate Internship Program comes with a twist. Typically, internships pair, say, law students with law firms. “We didn’t want to do that,” Terry Sutton, CEO of Maine Center Ventures, told Mainebiz. Maine Center Ventures is a nonprofit that supports the University of Maine Graduate and Professional Center by serving as a liaison between the academic and employer communities.
