HOW COBALT WORKS

PHASE 1: START PROJECT

PHASE 2: FUND PROJECT

PHASE 3: HIRE TALENT

TURN YOUR BRILLIANT IDEA INTO A PROJECT

Brilliant ideas deserve to be heard. Start a Project by explaining what you’re looking to achieve, how your idea could work and what kind of team you think you might need to make that happen. You’ll work with a Cobalt Co-pilot to make sure your Project is optimized for the best possible outcome.

FIND FUNDING TO BRING YOUR PROJECT TO LIFE

Once you’ve started your Project, the final thing to include is how you will fund it. You can either fund it yourself OR take advantage of our Small Loans for Big Ideas program.

HIRE A TEAM FROM OUR GLOBAL POOL OF INNOVATOR PROS

After starting a Project, securing funding and working with your Co-Pilot to ensure your Project is asking the right questions, you will go on to hire the team that will actually bring your idea to life.

GETTING FUNDED

HOW FUNDING WORKS

There are several different ways to fund your Project on the Cobalt platform so that you can hire a team of talented professionals to work on your idea.

OPTION 1: Self-Funded

This option is for those that have the idea and the cash but lack the technical skills required to design and engineer your Project. You can set your own budget and Cobalt will handle payouts to your team once the work is completed.

OPTION 2: Small Loans for Big Ideas

If you have the idea and lack the cash needed in hiring a team, we’ve got you covered. You can apply for a loan via our Small Loans for Big Ideas Program to acquire the cash so that you can hire a dream team.

OPTION 3: Sale of Future Equity (SALE)

Are you willing to let go of some ownership in order to hire a team and make your idea a reality? We’ll help you find investments starting at $5000 in exchange for ownership (called equity) of a Project.

OPTION 4: Sponsorship

Put your Project in the running for sponsorship by one of Cobalt’s brand partners. Projects that get the attention of sponsors typically relate to their brand’s products or mission so make sure your Project is a good fit when looking for sponsorship.
