For the duration of a week, SPARK Chicago will launch three companies from scratch, each receiving over $100,000 of free services! After six days of intense incubation, SPARK Chicago will have helped to create, build, and launch these three startups.

How? Through an application process, the contest will be narrowed down to sixty entrepreneurs who will form teams and compete in a curated Startup Weekend. Only three teams will make it out of the weekend and will move onto Round 2. Tenured entrepreneurs will mentor these winners throughout the three day incubation period. At the closing of the week, a panel of investors will choose one winner to receive a cash grant, and additional donated services.

Coming in the summer of 2011: SPARK Chicago--for the first time ever!
