MAINE TECHNOLOGY INSTITUTE RELEASES HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE
Gift Guide Profiles the Diverse Products Funded by the Organization
BRUNSWICK, MAINE – With 7 shopping days left in the gift-buying season, the Maine Technology Institute (MTI) has released its 2015 Holiday Gift guide to assist Maine people with last minute gift purchases and to demonstrate the diversity of the organization’s investments and support.
“The gift guide is an opportunity to reveal some of the amazing companies and diverse products that have benefited from a collaboration with MTI, its funding programs, and assistance,” said MTI’s President, Brian Whitney.
Over the past 15 years, MTI has helped grow world-renowned research organizations like Jackson Labs, Bigelow Labs and Mount Desert Island Biological Laboratory and has also funded projects leading to innovations in guitar and surf board manufacturing, Maine Mead production, artisan cheese creation, apparel making, and sustainability solutions for businesses.
“The gift guide provides a glimpse into some of these amazing innovations and exemplifies the inventiveness, cleverness, and creativity of Mainers,” said Whitney. “We hope people enjoy looking through it and we encourage them to reach out to the companies for further information about how to acquire the products.”

MTI is a publicly financed, private, nonprofit organization created by the Legislature in 1999 to stimulate research and development activity leading to the commercialization of new products, processes and services in the state’s seven targeted technology sectors. MTI programs are either loans, equity investments, or grants designed to enhance the competitive position of those sectors and increase the likelihood that one or more of these sectors will support clusters of industrial activity and create quality jobs across Maine.
