About SSGB
What can we say? At DailyCandy, it’s our job to scout out the most talented and creative up-and-comers in the realms of fashion, food, and fun. Since 2000, we’ve had the privilege of watching many a meteoric rise.
And now, experts that we are, we’re here to celebrate fledgling businesses with our annual Start Small, Go Big contest. Each year, we comb through thousands of entries to find our top three favorite up-and-comers in four categories. Then we let you, the reader, decide who you think deserves the grand prize: a trip to NYC, the opportunity to network with industry bigwigs at our Academy, and a solo write-up in a DailyCandy email.
This year’s contest is over, but feel free to use the Start Small, Go Big site as your year-round resource for turning your idea into an empire.
As for what makes a winning idea (or doesn’t), well, let's just say you need to watch our video.
