Boost is an intensive, 3—6 month incubation program where we provide the support to boost your early-stage startup through a human-centered approach.
After the 6-month incubation program, you can pitch to receive an investment of $300,000 USD at Moon Creative Lab’s Demo Day.
Depending on the stage of the new business and needs of the team, Moon can provide:
Boost is open to any person, team, or corporation looking to get expert advice and hands-on help for their early-stage business to get traction in the market. Some examples of what you can do at Moon:
Moon is looking to help teams and corporations that have begun working on a new business idea and want to build or test prototypes with real customers.
For those who want to pursue new business creation but don’t yet have a new business idea, we suggest you apply for our hands-on learning program, Spark.
Depending on the stage of your startup and the needs of your team, time in Boost can be as light or heavy as required. Our goal is to help you improve your product/service with real feedback from customers as quickly as possible.
Applications are now closed for our October 2023 cohort. Check back here for our next application dates.
After participating in Boost, participants may present to the Moon Investment Committee in hopes of gaining $300,000 USD in funding.
Participating startups will be able to pitch for an investment of $300,000 USD* on a post-money KISS/J-KISS at a $3M valuation cap – 10% of your company prior to dilution.
Teams wanting to present at Demo Day must incorporate their business prior to participation.
*Participation in Boost is subject to review. Selection for funding is based on pitches.
Moon’s next Demo Day is scheduled for Friday, 5 April 2024. (This is after Moon’s 6-month Boost cohort, which begins in October 2023, concludes.)
Moon will continue to provide teams support and guidance post-Demo Day.
We’re eager to work with corporate teams and bring your innovative ideas to life. Contact us here and we’ll send you information to share with your team to see if Boost is the right fit for you.
