Congratulations are in order for Toure McCluskey and Elan Mosbacher, the inaugural winners of the Chicago Digital Start-Up Initiative.

Toure is the recipient of $15,000 and the founder of OkCoPay, a ground breaking comparison search engine for medical care. 

Along with Vadim Korneyev, Elan is the co-founder of Agency Auditor and the recipient of $5,000.  Agency Auditor  is search solution that transforms the highly quantitative analysis required to manage big pay-per-click accounts into clear, actionable and quantifiable PPC insights and recommendation.

These entrepreneurs were among over 30 applicants for the grant.  It has been an interesting, exciting process and we can’t wait to see how things develop with both businesses.

Thanks to all of our applicants and we look forward to next year’s applicants.

Best,

Matthew and the team @ CIMA
