So, we just did a thing at 43North.

We partnered with Facebook, M&T Bank, Amazon AWS, Quickbooks, WordPress and WooCommerce to award 27 small businesses grants totaling in $1M.

This week on the podcast we talk to one of the key architects of the program, Dave Jakubowski from Facebook. The WNY native was a 43North judge last year and it was backstage where the seed for Ignite Buffalo was planted.
