The New York Knicks want to help four entrepreneurs “make it.”
The basketball organization and a partner sponsor, website-building platform Squarespace, have launched the Make It Awards, a contest in which four metro area entrepreneurs each will win $30,000 in grants and marketing tools to boost their businesses.
“New York City inspires the best and brightest doers and hustlers to make their dreams come true. It’s an ethos that we embody at Squarespace, and we believe that anyone has the power to go out there and make it happen for themselves,” said Kinjil Mathur, chief marketing officer at Squarespace, which is based in Manhattan.
