Looking Back at Ignite Buffalo

REFLECT10N: Ignite Buffalo Alumni Reunion
As part of our ongoing celebration of 43North's 10th anniversary, we took a moment to reflect on the incredible journey of our Ignite Buffalo alumni. For the first time in six years, these small business owners gathered to enjoy a morning of celebration, breakfast, and a premiere of the latest 43North Ignite Buffalo video.
In 2018, through Ignite Buffalo, 27 exceptional businesses from around WNY were chosen to receive a cut of $1 million in grants and a year of educational programming. This video reflects on the moment their businesses changed forever and gives a sneak peek into where they are today.
Here's to the small business owners who make Buffalo what it is. Thank you for being an integral part of this amazing journey.
