2016 year finished well for us, as Things 4 Strings LLC was honored for the third year at the 24th Annual New Jersey Family Business of the Year Awards, and featured in New Jersey Business Magazine. We know those in our own string community appreciate the innovation, pedagogy and value of our products, but it is also lovely to be recognized in our business community as well! Each year the Rothman Institute of Innovation and Entrepreneurship of the Silberman College of Business honors selects family businesses to honor. In this year's grouping we were glad to see included other businesses owned by women, and, as usual, were humbled by the tenacity, creativity and variety of family businesses here in New Jersey.
