If you have a physical product or cool concept you have invented - don’t miss the 30-day Grow America’s Innovative Product Competition. The competition begins Jan. 28 and ends Feb. 26, 2013 and open to entrepreneurs over age 18 who have an innovative product to sell (or at least an idea for an innovative product). If  you have a service-based, software, or other non-physical product business - you’ll have to wait until the next competition to enter.

They will award $35,000 to three winning companies ($20,000 for first place, $10,000 for second and $5,000 for third).

Once you enter your product in the competition, share it with your family, friends and community. Every vote and share will help to get you closer to winning a portion of the $35,000 prize. Grow America will name the Top 50 participants as finalists, which should be tremendously helpful in advancing your ideas among funding sources of every kind. Expert judges will judge the finalists, and Grow America will award the cash on Feb. 26 to the winners.

So bring your most innovative products and product ideas forward at Grow America and let the competition begin!
