The Buffalo community, like communities around the world, has faced unprecedented challenges over the past few months. Everything we do at 43North is community-first, and for that reason we have made the incredibly difficult decision to cancel our $5M startup competition for 2020. It is our responsibility to do what is best for our community, and with the great level of uncertainty surrounding the global pandemic, moving forward as planned would be contradictory to that commitment.

We look forward to the competition’s return in 2021. In the meantime, you can sign up to be notified when the next application period is open.

Thank you for your understanding. Stay well.
