Congrats to 2025 MN Cup winner
Congratulations to Hennepin County business and 2025 MN Cup grand prize winner AcQumen Medical!
The company was awarded $100,000 to support the growth of technology that helps doctors manage the heart function of critically ill infants and children.
"We delivered a foundational stride in shaping the brand's digital voice and presence including a website review, defining their audience, talking points, and strategic social media content," said Carmen Monserrate, CEO of New Publica and Elevate Hennepin marketing advisor. "This work helped ensure their communication was as precise as their technology."
MN Cup is a community-led, public-private partnership supporting Minnesota’s entrepreneurs. More than $5 million of cash prizes have been awarded since 2005.
