SPRINGVILLE, UTAH (June 2, 2009)-With 11 trademarks registered during 2008, Neways was recently ranked fifth out of 20 top Utah companies by the Utah Genius awards program, which honors “the movers and shakers of Utah’s ‘creative economy,’ ” according to a local newspaper report. “That is to say, the people whose patents and trademarks are greasing the skids of commerce, so to speak, and adding much-needed jobs to the economy.”
At the Utah Genius event, Neways director of regulatory affairs Monzur Ahmed accepted the award on the company’s behalf. Among other distinguished speakers, Utah governor Jon Huntsman gave a video message thanking members of the Utah business community for their contributions to innovation and entrepreneurship.
“As the leading safety-conscious company in the health, wellness, and beauty industry, Neways is very pleased to receive this award,” said Ahmed. “With our world-class branding, Neways is proud of our innovative research and development efforts, which provide safe and effective product alternatives for our distributors and consumers worldwide.”
The Utah Genius program was launched by the Bateman IP Law Group, whose founder Randall Bateman said he was inspired by the book The Rise of the Creative Class, by Richard Florida. “His premise is that dynamic economies are going to be based on creative people,” Bateman told a local newspaper.
