The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has named A. Gregory Bachmann, President of Dymax Corporation of Torrington, CT, the 2011 Connecticut Small Business Person of the Year. Mr. Bachmann, president of DYMAX since 2005, will receive the award May 24 at a breakfast ceremony at Amarante's Sea Cliff in New Haven, CT, Bernard M.
