A state grant of $175,000 will boost a business incubator program at Lorain County Community College.


The money will pay for advances at the Edison Incubator Program at the Great Lakes Innovation and Development Enterprise, or GLIDE, at LCCC. State Rep. Matt Lundy, D-Elyria, and Rep. Dan Ramos, D-Lorain, announced the award this week.
