2014 Glacier Startup Weekend Award Winner Ready to Go to Market – Bringing Pottery to a New Level

"I had a very clear problem, and the solution was standing," he said in his Kalispell studio last week. "It worked so well, I thought, ‘Why is it not taught this way?’ And I realized it’s because my table was built to my specific height.’"

This led to Carlburg’s http://www.handmadegrowlers.com musings about an adjustable, ergonomic potter’s station, an idea that likely would not have led anywhere as quickly as it did had Carlburg not attended the inaugural Glacier Startup Weekend last year.

The weekend – taking place this year over Oct. 9-11 – brings together anyone interested in entrepreneurship, from potential businesspeople to mentors and coaches. In the span of 54 hours, participants team up and take entrepreneurs from ideas to a viable business.
