The Capital Loop

Your Venture Gets Funded Before You Graduate

We don't make you pitch VCs or give up equity. BoomEdu's Boom Dealz marketplace generates revenue that flows directly back to the top ventures coming out of the ENT 500 Capstone — no strings attached.

How the Capital Loop Works

  1. 1

    Students operate Boom Dealz marketplace → real revenue

  2. 2

    50% of platform revenue pools into seed grants

  3. 3

    ENT 500 top ventures receive $2,500–$5,000+ non-dilutive grants

Non-dilutive — you keep 100% of your equity
