We are excited to announce

the BX-Factor Grant

a groundbreaking initiative aimed at fostering and accelerating the growth of small businesses in the Bronx

The BX-Factor is a grant specifically designed to support promising local businesses that have faced challenges in securing necessary funding for growth and sustainability.

But the BX-Factor is about more than just financial assistance. It's a competition that will showcase the entrepreneurial spirit of the Bronx. The top five applicants will be invited to participate in a pitch competition during Bronx Week for a chance to win a $10,000 cash prize. This competition is not only about the monetary reward but also an opportunity to present innovative business ideas and gain exposure.

The selection process will focus on how well applicants propose to utilize the award to benefit their business and, in turn, the local community. Applications open February 1st. The deadline to apply for this grant is March 15th. Finalists will be notified by April 15th.
