An entrepreneurial voice is about to have its volume turned up.

Dream Big America, the nationally syndicated radio show that broadcasts a weekly competition showcasing up-and-coming startups and entrepreneurs, today announced it’s joining forces with Sprint to get larger exposure around the country and help the startups even more.

“We’re thrilled to team up with Sprint, a proven leader in our country’s entrepreneurial movement who is demonstrating, once again, its vision to support entrepreneurs across America,” said Doug Stephan, the show’s host. “This relationship supercharges our ability to highlight the best of the best startups across the country.”

More than just exposure, the partnership has created the Sprint Startup Zone on the Dream Big website, which highlights more of the entrepreneurs’ experience and provides resources and content for fellow entrepreneurs and their supporters—set to launch this summer.

Dream Big launched last July and since then has had a number of Silicon Prairie startups participate, including Bawte and myEDmatch. Listeners vote online to select a winner, which then takes on the other weekly winners for that month.

There’s a special slate for this week’s show, airing at 9:10 ET on Tuesday. Three of the teams from the Sprint Mobile Health Accelerator, powered by Techstars—AkibaH, LifeLife Response and Yosko—will duke it out.
