NYC Small Business Tech Coalition partner ShopKeep POS recently announced a small business incubator program that will award $15,000 in grants to help hard working small business owners make their ‘Big Ideas’ a reality.
The competition, titled ‘Small Biz, Big Ideas,’ asks small business owners to submit 500 characters and an image of their small business via Facebook about the ‘Big Idea’ they would most like to implement in their business. A combination of public voting and a panel of ShopKeep judges will decide a Grand Prize winner of $10,000 and five Runner-Ups who will each receive $1,000.
The competition comes as ShopKeep launches a new initiative for small businesses – ‘Counter Culture' – an online resource center and community dedicated to small business innovation.
