What is it?

Ford has teamed up with Notable.ca to launch the Ford Fusion StartUp Lab, which will offer three $10,000 prizes to successful teams in Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver, respectively.

This competition will see multiple teams of 2 or 3 people face off against other teams in the same city in an adrenalin-inducing day of entrepreneurial competition.

The selected teams accepted into the Ford Fusion StartUp Lab will compete in several business-related challenges spanning the course of a day and spanning the geography of the city they are competing in. Chances are almost 100% that the teams will be driving to the various challenges in new Ford Fusions. The competitors will also be recorded, and videos will be made from each of the cities' competitions.

How to Apply:  

First, a team must already have complete ownership of an existing business or a completely new idea they want to launch.

Next, the team has to apply by submitting a video explaining why they should be selected and why their startup idea is worth investing in. There are specific application requirements for each city, and some of the deadlines are fast approaching. If you are interested in competing in Toronto, Montreal, or Vancouver, ensure you pay close attention to the specific details.

If you plan on applying, best of luck!
