What’s the coolest thing made in PA? You get to decide in a first-of-its-kind face off that started today! Voting is now open on the PA Chamber's Twitter page.
The PA Chamber is proud to launch its first annual “Coolest Thing Made in PA” tournament, where 32 of the most interesting products made in Pennsylvania will compete for the right to be called this year’s “Coolest Thing Made in PA.” The contest has already taken social and earned media by storm, with competing companies, local chambers of commerce and Pennsylvania voters weighing in on who they think should take home the title.
“From the steel that built our nation’s cities, to the food that feeds our families, and the cutting-edge technology driving today’s and tomorrow’s innovation — Pennsylvania makes it all,” Pennsylvania Chamber of Business and Industry President and CEO Luke Bernstein said in a press release announcing the contest. “This competition celebrates the commonwealth’s storied history and continued leadership in manufacturing, and spotlights the amazing companies who are making incredible things right here in Pennsylvania. We can’t wait to see who comes out on top and look forward to growing this competition in the years to come.”
The 32 companies and products included in this year’s tournament are facing off in a single-elimination bracket format with winners chosen through public voting on the PA Chamber’s Twitter page. The first round of voting began today at Noon and will run through Friday, March 17.
The full tournament voting schedule is as follows:
