The UPS Store is on a mission to uncover the next generation of unstoppable entrepreneurs. That’s why we invited small business owners across the U.S. to compete in the 2024 The UPS Store Small Biz Challenge, in partnership with Inc. Business Media.

What’s at stake? A share of the $35,000 prize pool, not to mention a winning feature in Inc. magazine - talk about bragging rights!

Applications began in January, with nine lucky semifinalists chosen and paired with mentors for an added boost of motivation and entrepreneurial advice. That support will come in handy with applicants competing in challenges that test their skills in marketing, staffing, operations and company culture. 

During National Small Business Month this May, three finalists will strut their stuff in front of a live audience in Miami for the final showdown in front of celebrity host and influencer Cassey Ho and guest judges. Who will come out on top? Tune in May 16

Meet the three finalists:

•  Bitty Boa makes bilingual Chinese books for children, teaching them about everything from counting to food and cultural moments like Lunar New Year and beyond.

•  We Met IRL is in the business of relationships, offering speed dating events, mixers and more – all with an emphasis on reaching people from diverse backgrounds and creating the right environment for romance.

•  Hot Girls Pearls, it’s all in the name. Creators of fashionable pearl jewelry that can also be stored in the freezer to be worn on those hot summer days. Staying cool AND stylish.

更深入了解： We know what it takes to run a successful small business. Since its inception in 2019, The UPS Store Small Biz Challenge has been spotlighting the best and brightest small business owners.
