Local Company Receives Top Honor
Second Stage Business Honored as one of “Michigan 50 Companies to Watch”
Troy, MI March 3, 2008: Portable Church Industries has been recognized as one of the “Michigan 50 Companies to Watch,” an awards program sponsored by the Edward Lowe Foundation.
Portable Church Industries was recognized at an awards ceremony during the third annual Michigan Celebrates Small Business event, April 24 in Lansing.
"Michigan 50 Companies to Watch” is a unique awards program designed to shine the spotlight on second-stage companies,” says Mark Lange, executive director of the Edward Lowe Foundation, a not-for-profit operating foundation based in Michigan. The foundation’s mission is to “champion the entrepreneurial spirit” by encouraging entrepreneurial cultures in communities throughout the country and helping second-stage companies learn from each other.
"When it comes to a robust economy, second-stage entrepreneurs play a critical role because they generate new jobs and sustainable growth,” Lange says. “And yet, they’re not often recognized or appreciated for the impact they have on the economy or the community.”
Portable Church Industries (PCI) is a professional consulting and equipment supplier, specializing in churches who rent their primary meeting space. Using specialists in technology, specialists in project management and a customized cargo approach, PCI provides a one source solution for nomadic churches.
Companies nominated for the “Michigan 50 Companies to Watch” list must be second-stage companies, defined as having 6 to 99 full-time-equivalent employees and generating $750,000 to $50 million in annual revenue or working capital from investors or grants. In addition, the companies must be privately held and headquartered in Michigan.
