#2 – From WV BUSINESSLINK –  Entrepreneurial ecosystems are places characterized by inclusive environments which support connections, creativity, innovation, and new thinking about old problems.

The benefits of entrepreneurship-led economic development are profound. Entrepreneurship, for example, builds local wealth—not just for a few people—but for individuals from all socioeconomic backgrounds. 

In communities where ecosystems are supported there are more overall businesses, which diversifies and insulates the economy from economic flux by reducing single-sector reliance. 

Join an elite number of individuals across the United States who are leading in entrepreneurship-led economic development. Earn your Entrepreneurship Development Professional Certification (EDP) from IEDC.

#3 – From WV LIVING – When young Joseph John Weishar took a job at Wheeling’s Central Glass Works in 1880, it set his family on a long adventure in the glass industry. By the 1930s, his son and grandson, J.D. and Joe Weishar, were working at Central, too.

But in 1939, Central went out of business. That could have been the end of the Weishars in glass. Then J.D. Weishar decided on a new approach. He bought Central’s mould-making equipment and opened Island Mould & Machine in his aunt’s three-car garage on Wheeling Island. In 1947 he moved it to the north side of Wheeling but kept the name, and it operates there today.

The Weishar men like to say that mould makers are the unsung heroes of the glass industry. Pieces made from the company’s moulds touch every part of daily life. Do you have the iconic Blenko water pitcher? Island Mould made the moulds for both the large and small ones, along with lots of other tableware, barware, and collectibles—and everything from “walk/don’t walk” lights to wing tip lenses for airplanes to scientific glassware.

#3 – From WOWK-TV – Did you ever wonder how Appalachia got its name? According to legend, the name traces back to early European expeditions. 

In 1539, a Spanish expedition under the command of Hernando De Soto came across a Native American tribe near modern day Tallahassee, Florida and named them and the province Apalache (Apalachee) as a derivative of the neighboring tribe of Apalachi. In 1540, De Soto’s expedition named the mountainous region of Appalachia after the tribe. 

As for naming the mountain range Appalachian, the distinction goes to French artist Jacques le Moyne de Morgues, who travelled in the 1564 French Huguenot expedition of René de Laudonnière.

While at the mouth of St. John’s River on the Florida coast, Le Moyne painted a scene of natives collecting gold from streams running from the “Apalatcy Mountains.”
