The 2022 36Squared
​BOOST Awards 

The application period for the 2022 Boost Awards closes Friday, June 3rd!

The 36Squared Business Incubator is now accepting applications for the 2022 "Boost Awards". These funds are intended to help boost the success of disabled Illinois entrepreneurs. Any single awardee is eligible for up to one thousand dollars in funding.​
The applications period will be open until midnight on Friday, June 3rd, 2022. All applicants must be Illinois residents with some type of disability that poses a challenge to their success in the business world. Winning applicants must be available to participate in a small virtual event in mid June (exact date and time to be determined) where the checks will be awarded. Funds are limited, however we do expect to have 3-5 winners this year.

Note: While $1000 is the maximum award amount most, and possibly all, awardees may be offered lesser amounts to allow for more winners.


In order to apply for the award, the below form must be filled out in its entirety and submitted. Applicants must include a link to a brief video pitch explaining their business, challenges they face, and a detailed description of how the funds would be used. The video, along with the entry form, will be reviewed by our judges. Criteria will include business viability, experience and challenges faced by the applicant. Suggested platforms to host the video on are YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Note: Highly polished and produced videos are not necessary. A simple cell phone video explaining your business idea will be fine. Please keep video pitches to less than 2 minutes in length. 

If you have any questions on the Boost Award feel free to email us here.
