The City of Yellowknife describes the contest as, “a business incubation competition aimed at inspiring Yellowknifers to start or expand their business.”

‘The Grand Finale’ will be a live event at City Hall*. It will be open to the public.

It will be next Wednesday, August 2nd, and will begin at 5:30 pm.

Light snacks and refreshments will be available (which is always a score).

More information, including video submissions of the finalists, a schedule of events for the Grand Finale, and the members of the Jury, can be found on www.winyourspaceyk.com.

*Update: Event is at City Hall, not The Explorer Hotel as was misreported on-air.
