Paddle Taxi – a social mission

Tonight is a reason to celebrate.  We entered the MN Cup, which the 9th annual business plan competition in MN!   With 6 different divisions, hundreds of applicants, the MN Cup’s thorough application process forced Paddle Taxi’s Crew to step up their game, streamline their business plan and pitch their mission to some big names.
