AROUND TOWN: Suwanee company runner-up in national small business competition
Lisa and George Winton had to carry around a secret for the last month. Their nearly 30-year-old business, Winton Machine Company, finished second in the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Million-Dollar Pitch Competition, and got $250,000 as a result. But they could not tell anyone until the “Shark Tank”-style finale of the competition was released on YouTube and Prime Video this week. “It’s been really hard (to not share the results),” Lisa Winton told their friends on Monday night. “Some people in this room have been trying and trying to get it out of us and my answer was ‘We won, we won’ because we did. All five of us (finalists) won.” The Wintons and the SBA held a preview watch party at Gwinnett Technical College on Monday night where friends and local business leaders could see the Million-Dollar Pitch program, which was produced in Washington D.C. last month, a day before it was released to the public. “Thank you to the SBA and thank you to President Trump,” George Winton told the Daily Post after the event. “It’s been a great experience and we’re extremely appreciative.” SBA Deputy Administrator Bill Briggs was among the people who attended the special screening.
