BrightChange is launching as a charity to help emerging entrepreneurs commercialize their innovations. Too many entrepreneurs have credible, disruptive ideas that either never "get out of the drawer" or sadly fizzle out after one or two rounds of funding. BrightChange will change that demoralizing reality by providing our wrap-around support ecosystem called BrightEco that will rapidly drive entrepreneurs' innovations to market.
Through our powerful venture accelerator, entrepreneurs, postdocs and EB-5 Visa investors will receive access to
- Highly accomplished BEST Advisors ~mentors
- Independent, thorough due diligence reports
- IP and technology acceleration
- 3D lab proof-of-concept prototyping support
- A Buyers & Producers Cooperative,
- An online lending library and
- The Beacon Model of corporate capitalization.
Member BrightVentures will be socially and environmentally responsible, focus on both local and expansive growth, and commit to becoming an ESOP, so that employees have opportunities to impact their companies' growth and prosper from their contributions.
BrightChange will also provide scholarships and fellowships, as well as training and education, data and apps, for helping members to excel in STEM fields, business, finance, investing and community relations.
By embracing the Beacon Model, a start-up venture will succeed through a self-fulfilling series of capitalizations needed for hockey-stick growth. Using this funding strategy, both investors and entrepreneurs seeking high growth will achieve extraordinary financial success and contribute toward bootstrapping communities in need of economic strength and sustainability.
BrightVentures will benefit tremendously from promotion on one of our sponsor's websites, aiWeek Media. Ventures with solid due diligence will be featured on aiWeek.com where accredited and other investors can view their explainer videos and then choose to video conference with the founders.
When ready, ventures may receive support for raising funds through Private Placements (Reg D Rule 506(c)) and $5 Million Regulation A (of 1933) public offerings, and, with proof of concept, can list on the Canadian Stock Exchange, the TSX-V, within a year.
