A group of students from the University of Nevada, Reno has been busy at the drawing board designing a product to improve the flight control of commercial drones. This month, their work paid off when those entrepreneurs won the Sontag Entrepreneurship Award.
The business competition is funded with a major gift from alumnus Rick Sontag to the University of Nevada. Each year a single prize of $50 thousand is awarded.
