AbbeyMoor Medical of Parkers Prairie has received pre-market approval from the Food and Drug Administration to sell “The Spanner,” a stent that treats men suffering from urinary problems because of a blocked prostate.

Catchy name for a stent. Very vivid imagery.

TST Media, a Minneapolis-based software company that specializes in Websites for amateur sport teams, said it raised an undisclosed amount of money from investors led by TC Angels.

Ever heard of FC Barcelona Penya LA or the Hamptons Collegiate Baseball league? Neither have I.

RedBrick Health, a Minneapolis-based health and wellness management startup, was recently named one of the top 50 best places to work in America for small to medium sized companies by Great Places to Work Institute and the Society for Human Resource Management, the only Minnesota firm to make the list.

Let me guess: their health benefits rock.
