Successful outcome for minicompanies
15 December, 2014
The Cork County Local Enterprise Board held a mini company Christmas trade fair on Tuesday 9th of December in Cork Airport for all Mini-Companies around Cork to showcase their products. Over 97 Mini companies attended with over 400 students competing on the day with judges deciding the winners from 9-12. 
There were high expectations for Midleton CBS as they made it all the way to the national final last April in Croke Park with the mini company "Hurling Hub".
They didn't disappoint, as they won two awards on the day. "East Eats Best", a company selling a cookbook of recipes from Restaurants and local celebrities in East Cork won the award for Best Marketing. "Comhghairdeas", a web company with a website for people to put up news of christenings/weddings and other events free of charge won the award for Best Exhibition Stand.
Both companies were delighted on the day and their teachers Rebecca Quirke and Iain Cooney were very proud. We look forward to the Regional Final in UCC in March as the next stage in the competition.
