Join Other Founders Growing Through Their Crowds

Bobby Flay visited Jason Johnson' proof of concept location called getREEF which has served over 200k passengers generating $3m+ in revenue over 18 months. Jason's investor crowd helped land this collaboration with the REEF & RDU creating the 1st virtual dining hall in an airport in the country. RDU's virtual dining hall provides passengers food & drink options from 13 national & local brands, fresh prepared out of a single kitchen. No lines. Now Jason's landed Cincinnati (CVG), 2 Nashville (BNA) locations, and has several other top 25 airports in the US asking him for their own.

Desmond Wiggan's BatteryXchange kiosks provide rentable & returnable batteries for cell phones and laptops in hospitals such as Atrium Health. In 2021, they increased Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) 500% over 2020 from connections their crowd of investors made. They signed their 1st 6 figure deal in 2023 and have over $1m of close to close sales in the 2024 pipeline. Their investor crowd has also opened doors at top universities (ex. WSSU), other healthcare entities (ex. Atrium), and professional sports teams' stadiums.

Nopalera is one of the only luxury Latino-owned beauty brands in the country. Sandra Velasquez has rejected offers from the Sharks twice. With over $3.2m of revenue 2021 to 2023 ($2m in 2023 alone), she's mobilizing investment from VCs + accelerators & crowd investors to grow beyond her 55k DTC customers and 400 retail locations which currently include Nordstrom, Credo, Free People and more. Sandra's vision is to "create an elevated Latina beauty brand that would change the narrative about the value of [Latina] goods in the market while inspiring [the Latina] community to stand in their worth."

How hard can it be to combine 2 elements into a new nanotech that among many other things, removes & destroys PFAS (toxic forever chemicals) from water? Steve, Jason & team solved it in 3 years.  Other systems require high temperature and pressure, often requiring 1 kWh+ per gallon of water (For reference, the average house consumes 900 kWh/month & Wilmington, NC treats 44m gallons a day). Invicta Water's tech requires only UV light with no added temperature or pressure so it's the only known affordable and scalable system to solve this $1 trillion+ global PFAS issue. Their crowd broke them into a paid pilot in Pittsboro and now they are being invited to set up systems in utilities across the US.
