IDEAS ARE EVERYWHERE.


We find them, fund them and bring them to life

The Opportunity


3 OUT OF 5



People Have An Idea To Start A Company



Many of these ideas have huge potential buried in them. Most need only a small
amount of funding to get started.

The Problem


LESS THAN 8%



OF PEOPLE ARE TAKING ACTION



This untapped innovation potential means millions of potential new ventures are
just waiting to get started and could create jobs, generational wealth and game
changing innovations to our world's challenges.


A New Approach to Funding




WE HELP ENTREPRENEURIAL DREAMERS BECOME DOERS THAT BUILD PROMISING NEW COMPANIES



Personal finances should not be a factor as to whether a great idea becomes
reality. Our philanthropic Pebble Funds solve this challenge once and for all.
Contributions, which are 100% tax-deductible, pave the way for a universal
onramp, enabling anyone to transform ideas into action.

Every successful business needs adequate capital to begin, expand, and
ultimately grow. Sadly, lack of capital is one of the biggest barriers to
realizing the full economic potential that promising young companies represent
to our communities and our nation. Our Cornerstone Funds are blended returns
impact investment vehicles that provide a full stack of investment options to
the most promising new ventures



WE’VE STARTED HUNDREDS OF NEW BUILDERS ON THEIR ENTREPRENEURIAL JOURNEY


LET’S BUILD TOGETHER



THE IDEA ACCELERATOR



An innovative 90-day program that teaches anyone the fundamentals of
entrepreneurship and takes their ideas from concept to action through rapid
experimentation.



RISK-FREE


We help you put your idea into action in a no-cost, no-risk way. The program is
free. We’ll surround you with a world-class team who can help you build. We’ll
even provide the funding so you can run short, high-impact tests of your ideas.
The result? Build with confidence (rather than guesses)!

NO BUSINESS PLAN, PITCH DECK OR INCORPORATED BUSINESS REQUIRED


Just bring your biggest and boldest ideas and a willingness to learn so we can
roll up our sleeves together and get started building.

WE’RE INVESTING IN A FUTURE OF BUILDERSHIP™ WHERE TECHNOLOGIES DISRUPT TO
DEMOCRATIZE.
