The WeWork Creator Awards is a new start up competition granting over $20 million in funding to entrepreneurs, small businesses, growing companies, non-profits, artists or anyone with a great idea. The application process takes only 15 minutes, and entrants will be eligible to compete for $1.5 million at the South Regional Finals in Austin over June 26 and 27. The application deadline is June 5.

In addition to financial awards, the South Regional Finals brings together everything it takes to make a life, not just a living. The two-day public event will include a pop-up market with local sellers, series of master classes and workshops, a job fair as well as live pitches and an awards ceremony and celebration.

The Creator Awards are a new global initiative from WeWork, the world's largest co-working community and shared space provider, with three locations in the Dallas area. WeWork believes that the way we work is changing -- and that the way we recognize and reward work must change too.
