How can you benefit from our Enabler Round?

Six weeks ago we launched our UFOstart Enabler Round in order to prepare our product for market readiness. We wanted to improve what we’ve built so far - with a focus on UX for round setup and management. It has been a very valuable experience for us and we thank everyone who has contributed so far! But how can YOU profit from the crowd with only four more days left in our Enabler Round?

Startups

How many would-be startup founders do you think lie in bed at night thinking and dreaming about their business idea, but they don't know how to make it happen? Perhaps that sounds a lot like you, or how you've thought in the past. Sometimes all you need is a little help to get that great idea off the ground. That's where we come in. 

Are you ready to move from a dreamer to startup founder? Then, let's not waste another minute. We provide you with all the tools you need to get a jumpstart on your business. Through the power of crowdsourcing and crowdfunding, you'll have the needed resources right at your fingertips. The process is really very simple. First, you tell us what your idea is. If the crowd is onboard with your business idea, you'll receive support in the way of funding, expert knowledge, legal information...basically everything you need to get started. Here's YOUR chance to launch a round on UFOstart and receive 10k in funding. You can apply directly here and start using the power of the crowd for your venture! If you have questions, our new help page will guide you in the right direction.

Investors

Last week we were able to further establish our UFOstart Mentor Concept. It aims to coach and jumpstart lean, crowdsourcing based Start Ups by offering access to our platform and a $10k investment. You can be part of our UFOstart business model as a mentor while giving a high-potential Start Up the opportunity to launch a round on UFOstart and therefore launch their idea. The concept revolves around a 10k paper check, which the mentor can give to a start up of his choice. If 7 criteria are met by this venture, one of them being a successful round close on UFOstart, the investment will be provided. forward with the investment. Your role as a mentor constitutes leveraging your network and your experience to coach the Start Up to a successful close, as well as spreading the word about our platform. - of course with an interesting benefit system.  We are looking for mentors in different locations around the world, please contact us if you are interested in becoming one of them!
