FAIRMONT — As Fairmont continues its quest to improve the Friendly City and revitalize the community, it has partnered with a group of students from West Virginia University’s College of Business and Economics in an effort to do so in the best way possible.
Under the direction of Steven Cutright, the director of the BrickStreet Center of Innovation and Entrepreneurship at WVU, Logan Stout, Ben Scott and Brody Prudnick have partnered with Main Street Fairmont and the Fairmont Community Development Partnership in this project.
“Our goal and our initiative is to mobilize the intellectual capacity of the College of Business and Economics to the communities across the state,” Cutright said. “I think it’s been a great contribution to the City of Fairmont.”
