WeWork has launched a new startup competition called the Creator Awards that will grant more than $20 million in funding to entrepreneurs, small businesses, non-profits and others with a great idea.

WeWork introduced the Creator Awards to emphasize that because the way we work is changing, there must be new ways to recognize and reward work.

The global initiative is seeking entries that reflect entrepreneurs who are thinking in new ways, building fresh projects and achieving real change across industries.

To apply or to nominate others, visit https://creatorawards.wework.com.

Entries are due by June 5. Applicants will compete for $1.5 million at the Austin Regional Finals on June 26-27 in Austin, Texas. The two-day public event will include a pop-up market featuring local sellers, master classes and workshops, a job fair, live pitches and an awards ceremony and celebration. Those who advance will compete for additional prizes at the Creator Awards Global Finals in New York in November.

Residents of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and West Virginia are eligible to enter.

WeWork is a global co-working community and shared space provider. It has more than 140 locations around the globe. A WeWork location will open soon in Kansas City at Corrigan Station on Walnut Street. The space will have enough room for more than 750 members.
