A New ROAD to Affordable Housing

A New Hope

Every once in a while, Congress does something that gives me genuine hope.

The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act became law on July 11, 2026, after passing both houses of Congress with broad bipartisan support. Remarkably, the president neither signed nor vetoed it. Because Congress remained in session, the bill became law without presidential approval after the constitutional review period expired—an unusual path for a major piece of legislation.

The law is enormous. It touches zoning, public land, rural housing, homelessness, veterans, home repairs, mortgage lending, disaster recovery, community banking, manufactured housing and modular construction.

What excites me most is not any single program. It is the possibility of combining the law’s housing tools with regulated investment crowdfunding.

Women Founders Still Lead Nearly One in Four PurposeBuilt100™ Companies

Lisa Curtis, Founder and CEO of Kuli Kuli

Danielle Godfrey, Founder and CEO of SetApart Accountancy

Los Angeles, Calif., July 24, 2026 — (KOREWIRE) — Twenty-four of the 100 companies recognized in the inaugural PurposeBuilt100™ are still led by women who helped found them, a striking finding from a new national recognition program celebrating fast-growing, purpose-driven businesses.

To qualify for this group, a company had to satisfy two distinct tests: a woman must currently occupy its top executive role, typically as CEO, and that same woman must have been a genuine member of the company’s founding team.

Women founder-executives therefore lead 24% of the PurposeBuilt100. By comparison, a record 55 women lead Fortune 500 companies in 2026, representing 11% of America’s largest companies by revenue.

The two lists represent dramatically different populations and are not directly comparable. The Fortune 500 consists of the country’s largest companies, while the PurposeBuilt100 recognizes businesses of varying sizes selected from the purpose-driven economy. The PurposeBuilt100 standard is also narrower: its 24% figure counts only women who both helped found their companies and remain their top executives, while the Fortune 500 figure includes all women CEOs regardless of whether they founded the business.

Build the Crowd Before You Need the Money

For artists and creators, talent is essential. But talent alone rarely pays the rent, funds the next project, or turns a creative practice into a sustainable career.

Crowdfunding offers a different path.

At its best, crowdfunding is not begging. It is not charity. It is an invitation. It says to the people who already care about your work, your voice, your community, or your mission: “Come with me. Help me build this.”

That invitation can start small. Over time, it can become the foundation for something much bigger.

PurposeBuilt100™ Winners Span 29 States, Revealing Unexpected Hubs of Purpose-Driven Growth

LOS ANGELES, Calif. — July 15, 2026 — (KOREWIRE) — The Super Crowd, Inc., a public benefit corporation making money a force for good, today released a geographic analysis of the inaugural PurposeBuilt100™, revealing that the 100 fastest-growing purpose-driven companies on the list are headquartered across 29 states.

California led all states with 23 winners, followed by Pennsylvania with nine and Florida with eight. Colorado, Georgia, New York, North Carolina and Texas each produced five winners.

But the state-by-state analysis also revealed a deeper story: purpose-driven growth is not simply following population size or gross domestic product. When adjusted for population and state GDP, smaller and mid-sized states emerged as some of the most concentrated hubs of PurposeBuilt100 winners.

Delaware had the highest representation relative to both population and GDP, with three winners from a state that would be expected to produce only a fraction of one company under a simple proportional distribution. Utah also stood out, with three winners—nearly three times what a population- or GDP-based distribution would predict. Colorado and Pennsylvania also significantly outperformed both baselines.

A sortable list of all 100 PurposeBuilt100 winners, including company names, websites and headquarters states, is available here:

“The PurposeBuilt100 map tells a hopeful story about American entrepreneurship,” said Devin Thorpe, CEO and founder of The Super Crowd, Inc. “California’s leadership is clear, but this list also shows that purpose-driven growth is not confined to Silicon Valley, New York or any single startup corridor. We are seeing companies built on purpose and proven by growth in places like Utah, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Georgia, North Carolina, Texas and across the country.”

Invitation to Participate in the Entrepreneur Intelligence System (EIS) Field Validation

Karl Dakin, V2R LLC

Most small businesses are already using AI—but primarily as a tool to make their management teams more productive. The extended application of AI goes much, much further.

V2R LLC’s Entrepreneur Intelligence System (EIS) combines artificial intelligence with expert knowledge and your company’s own non-public information to provide guidance tailored specifically to your business—not generic advice intended for the millions of startups launched each year.

Karl Dakin, founder of V2R LLC and an expert in capital formation and early-stage financing, is conducting a limited field validation of the fifth EIS program, First Business Funding. Designed as a self-directed, self-paced, affordable super mentor, EIS can help an entrepreneur with what they don’t know about raising capital through application of Karl Dakin’s Motivated Money Method toward finding a business’ Funding Soulmate. Participants will be guided through five key activities leading to the First Funding Milestone using interactive explanations, illustrations, quizzes, role-playing exercises, and AI coaching. The AI avatar will generate a capital strategy based on resource needs for the next three years, sort through stakeholders to determine qualified investor candidates, craft custom offers that align with the investor candidates, plan a capital campaign, support campaign preparation and management of the campaign.

We are seeking a small number of businesses that:

As of the end of June, our year-to-date community leaderboard stands as follows:

A Little Delusional for Good

The other day, a person I love and respect accused me of being “delusional.”

He meant it as an insult.

It landed like one at the time, especially knowing his intent.

As I’ve reflected on the interaction since, I’ve realized that I am, in fact, a bit delusional. Fifteen years ago, I stepped into the second half of my career with a soft goal to make a difference. Within a few years, I hardened that goal into one I still consider a literal goal today: “to help solve the world’s biggest problems: climate change, global health and social injustice/poverty.”

For 15 years, I’ve been writing, speaking and producing content and events to highlight how we can use our money for good—even as ordinary, everyday humans. We don’t have to be wealthy philanthropists to make a difference.

Over those years, I’ve had opportunities to interview billionaires, movie and television celebrities, an Olympic medalist and many hundreds of CEOs and founders, from the smallest businesses to large corporations—always talking about how to use money and business for good.

We’re not done. In fact, at times, it feels like the progress has been one step forward and two steps back! The problems I set out to solve a dozen years ago are still problems. But I didn’t think I’d solve them singlehandedly in a year or two. I knew this was a decades-long process of growing movements.

Applications Open for Live Pitch at SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100™

STOCKTON, Calif. — July 10, 2026 — (KOREWIRE) The Super Crowd, Inc., a public benefit corporation, today announced that applications are now open for the Live Pitch at SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100™, the three-day televised event taking place August 25–27, 2026.

The Live Pitch will take place Wednesday, August 26, 2026, during SuperCrowd26 and will be broadcast live on SuperCrowd.tv and syndicated to the e360tv TV Network. Companies selected to participate will pitch before investor judges and a live audience, competing for both the Judges’ Award and the SuperCrowd Award.

Applications are free, take about five minutes to complete, and there is no cost to pitch if selected. The application deadline is July 31, 2026. Founders may apply at https://new.thesupercrowd.com/pitch26.

“The Live Pitch has always been the most exciting part of every SuperCrowd event because something real is on the line,” said Devin Thorpe, CEO of The Super Crowd, Inc. “The judges may vote for a company, or they may not. They may choose to invest, or they may not. The audience may vote for a company, or they may not. Audience members may invest, or they may not. That uncertainty is exactly what makes it compelling—it is all happening live on television.”

To be eligible, companies must have an active Regulation Crowdfunding offering at the time of application, on or before July 31, 2026, and should reasonably expect the offering to remain live on August 26, 2026, the day of the Live Pitch. The program is designed for purpose-driven founders raising capital from the crowd to scale companies with meaningful social or environmental impact.

Past SuperCrowd Live Pitch participants have reported raising capital directly as a result of their participation. RISE Robotics, winner of the Judges’ Award at the June 2025 Superpowers for Good Live Pitch, was ranked by Kingscrowd as the most successful crowdfunding raise of 2025 after quickly reaching the Regulation Crowdfunding cap.

Meet the Inaugural PurposeBuilt100™ Winners

Today, we are thrilled to announce the inaugural PurposeBuilt100 winners—the 100 fastest-growing mission-driven businesses in America.

That phrase matters: 100 companies. In the entire country.

The Inc. 5000 recognizes 5,000 fast-growing companies. B Lab lists more than 10,000 certified B Corps. PurposeBuilt100 is different. This is a deliberately selective list of just 100 purpose-driven companies proving that growth and impact can belong in the same sentence.

Being anywhere on this list is a big deal.

Every company on the PurposeBuilt100 is a winner. Number 100 is a winner. Number 1 is a winner. Each has earned a place among an elite group of companies built on purpose and proven by growth.

PurposeBuilt100 was not built from a casual nomination form or a pay-to-play awards process. We screened the universe of eligible companies thoroughly, reaching out directly to likely candidates and inviting them to apply for free. We also screened the SEC’s EDGAR database for founder-led, mission-driven, growing companies.

Thousands of companies were screened.

One hundred won.

Qualified by impact. Ranked by growth.

Today, we’re sharing the winners in alphabetical order, along with their websites and home states. The full ranked list—from 1 to 100—will be revealed live during SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100, August 25–27, 2026.

PurposeBuilt100™ Announces Inaugural List of the 100 Fastest-Growing Mission-Driven Companies in America

LOS ANGELES, Calif., July 2, 2026 — (KOREWIRE): The Super Crowd, Inc., a public benefit corporation, today announced the inaugural PurposeBuilt100™ winners, recognizing the 100 fastest-growing mission-driven businesses in America.

The companies are being announced today in alphabetical order, with the full ranked list to be revealed live during SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100, a three-day televised event taking place August 25–27, 2026.

PurposeBuilt100 is designed to spotlight companies that pair meaningful social or environmental impact with exceptional business growth. The list is intentionally selective. While other business recognition programs may honor thousands of companies, PurposeBuilt100 recognizes just 100 winners nationwide.

Thousands of companies were screened. One hundred won. Qualified by impact. Ranked by growth.

To identify the inaugural winners, the PurposeBuilt100 team screened a broad universe of eligible businesses, reached out directly to likely candidates, invited applications at no cost, and reviewed the SEC’s EDGAR database for founder-led, mission-driven, growing companies.

“Being named to the PurposeBuilt100™ is a big deal,” said Devin Thorpe, founder of PurposeBuilt100™ and CEO of The Super Crowd, Inc. “This is not a pay-to-play list, and it is not a casual directory. We screened thousands of companies to identify 100 winners that are proving every day that impact and growth can go hand in hand.”

The ranked list will be revealed during SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100™, which will include three days of keynote conversations, panel discussions, founder profiles and surprise sub-rankings celebrating standout achievements among the winners.

The event will be televised and distributed across multiple channels, including SuperCrowd.tv and the e360tv Network, which reaches 2 million monthly viewers.

Put Your Impact Story on the Wire

Big news for the SuperCrowd community: The Super Crowd, Inc., a public benefit corporation, has partnered with KoreWire to launch SuperCrowd Impact Wire, a new service designed to help impact companies, founders, issuers, sponsors and changemakers share their news more effectively.

We’ve been using KoreWire for our own press releases and for client announcements, and the results have impressed me. Press release distribution is not a commodity. The quality varies widely by vendor, and many services that look affordable don’t deliver much reach. Others that deliver real distribution can be prohibitively expensive for the entrepreneurs and community builders we serve.

That’s why I’m excited about this collaboration.

Two Big Steps Forward for The Super Crowd

Big News at the SuperCrowd

I’m excited to share two big updates from The Super Crowd, Inc., a public benefit corporation.

Both are designed to do the same thing: help us build a bigger, stronger, more engaged community around impact crowdfunding.

SuperCrowd Impact League

The first is the SuperCrowd Impact League, a gamified portfolio tracker for impact investors. The second is SuperCrowd.tv, our new television channel, now available on Roku and Amazon Fire TV.

I’m proud of both. I’m excited about both. And I think each represents a meaningful step forward for our work together.

I May Have Explained This Poorly

I have a confession.

I have talked about PurposeBuilt100 so many times that I may have accidentally made it sound more complicated than it is.

So let me say it plainly:

PurposeBuilt100 is SuperCrowd’s new national recognition of the 100 fastest-growing purpose-driven companies in America.

That’s it.

Not a grant.

Not a pitch competition.

Not a popularity contest.

Not another vague “opportunity” you have to decode.

It is a chance for purpose-driven companies with real revenue growth to be recognized nationally, featured during SuperCrowd26, included in the PurposeBuilt100 report, and celebrated as examples of what the impact economy can become.

Applications are free. The form is short. The deadline is June 30 at midnight Pacific.

Deepti Brambl draws inspiration from her Nepalese heritage to drive innovation at Kaylaan.
Crowdfunding on Honeycomb Credit has empowered Kaylaan to scale operations and achieve regulatory compliance.
Customer feedback has shaped Kaylaan’s diverse products, including fluoride-based and neem-flavored options.
Deepti’s resilience and passion for sustainability have propelled Kaylaan’s mission to new heights.

New York, NY — June 22, 2026 — (KoreWire) — KoreWire, the first-of-its-kind newswire focusing exclusively on the private capital markets, and The Super Crowd, Inc. (SuperCrowd), a public benefit corporation and media platform focused on impact investing, regulated investment crowdfunding, social entrepreneurship, and community capital formation., today announced a strategic media and communications partnership designed to enhance visibility, engagement, and storytelling opportunities for entrepreneurs, investors, and capital markets participants worldwide.

The partnership combines KoreWire’s innovative communications infrastructure with SuperCrowd’s growing multimedia ecosystem to deliver valuable content, educational programming, and enhanced distribution opportunities across both organizations’ networks.

As part of the initial phase of the collaboration, SuperCrowd features a dedicated KoreWire news feed on its website, providing its audience with timely access to corporate announcements, funding news, regulatory developments, and thought leadership from companies operating within private capital markets. The SuperCrowd Impact Newsroom is already up and running.

Furthermore, SuperCrowd will act as an agency, distributing industry news for agency clients, helping, where required, to prepare media-ready releases, building on the SuperCrowd team’s deep journalistic expertise. The service, called SuperCrowd Impact Wire, is fully operational today, using KoreWire for distribution.

KoreWire is sponsoring SuperCrowd’s biggest event of the year, SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100™, which streams to SuperCrowd.tv, the e360tv TV Network, YouTube and social media. With potential reach in the millions of households with existing access across Roku, Amazon Fire TV, LG, Samsung, IOS and Android devices.

Shawna Chase Is Designing Civic Infrastructure That Starts With People

Shawna Chase brings a rare combination of gifts to the work of social impact: the soul of an artist, the discipline of a systems thinker and the practical experience of a seasoned product leader. Through ImpactMS and Livin’in, she is building civic infrastructure designed to help organizations see whether their community investments are truly reaching the people they are intended to serve.

What I appreciate most about Shawna’s work is that she begins not with the funder’s question—“Did the money work?”—but with the community member’s question: “Did the system reach me?” That shift matters. It reframes impact measurement as an exercise in access, dignity and agency.

Shawna Chase, ImpactMS

In this SuperCrowd Voices conversation, Shawna explains how the arts, technology and thoughtful design can help communities overcome barriers of discovery, trust, context and friction—and build systems that start with people.

Social Media App “Fureelz” Brings Joy and Purpose to Pet Lovers

tl;dr:

Fureelz, founded by Ashley Quincey, is a social media platform dedicated to animal lovers.
The app connects users with animal charities like PetSmart Charities to enable direct donations.
Fureelz is raising money through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Andes Capital.
Relentless optimism, Ashley’s superpower, has driven her entrepreneurial journey through challenges.
Ashley advises cultivating gratitude and perspective to develop and strengthen an optimistic mindset.

Solution for Solving Housing Crisis

America’s housing shortage is no longer a future concern—it is a present reality affecting millions of families, workers, seniors, veterans, and young people across the country. While discussions often focus on financing, zoning, or policy reforms, one challenge receives less attention: the construction industry itself has not fundamentally changed how homes are built in decades.

Gene Eidelman, CEO, Azure Printed Homes

At Azure Printed Homes, we started with a simple question: What if housing could be manufactured with the same efficiency, consistency, and scalability that transformed other industries?

That question led us to develop a new approach to homebuilding that combines robotic manufacturing, modular construction, and recycled materials to create homes faster, more sustainably, and at lower cost than traditional construction methods.

The housing crisis is often framed as a demand problem. In reality, it is also a supply problem. Communities across the United States need millions of additional housing units, yet labor shortages, rising material costs, permitting delays, and inefficient building processes continue to slow production. Even when financing is available and demand is strong, too many projects struggle to move forward quickly enough.

We believe technology can help change that.

Building Impact That Scales: Community, Capital, and the Future of Social Innovation

Hosted by Jay Goth on the Innovation Insights Podcast, this thought-provoking conversation with Devin Thorpe explores how community, capital, and collaboration can drive scalable social impact. Devin discusses the power of investment crowdfunding, the importance of building strong impact networks, and strategies for sustainable growth. From supporting mission-driven entrepreneurs to fostering innovation through collective action, this episode offers valuable insights for founders, investors, and changemakers working to create lasting positive change.

Can We Make Impact Investing as Fun as Gambling?

John Oliver’s main story a few weeks back focused on prediction markets, the fast-growing platforms that allow people to wager on the outcomes of future events.

The segment was funny because John Oliver is funny. The underlying story wasn’t.

Here’s the entire segment about prediction markets from his show. (As a note of caution to those unfamiliar with John Oliver, his humor is R-rated.)

Prediction markets increasingly allow people to bet on almost anything: elections, sports, political speeches, celebrity trials, weather, economic indicators and even war. Oliver’s central concern wasn’t simply that people are gambling. It was that these platforms are training people to see the world—politics, tragedy, public policy, human suffering—as a stream of monetizable events. You can profit from someone else’s tragedy—or lose money betting on it.

Four Innovative Companies Selected to Pitch at the Superpowers for Good Live Pitch on June 3

Four groundbreaking startups have been officially selected from a pool of highly qualified applicants to present their live Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF) offerings at the upcoming Superpowers for Good Live Pitch. The highly anticipated event will broadcast live on June 3 at 8:00 PM Eastern on the e360tv Network, accessible via Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, and a variety of other smart TV platforms.

The Superpowers for Good Live Pitch connects retail and accredited investors with visionary companies dedicated to driving profound social and environmental impact. The show is produced by The Super Crowd, Inc., a Delaware-based public benefit corporation, and is hosted by the company’s CEO, Devin Thorpe. Following rigorous scrutiny and screening by a distinguished panel of professional investors, the four companies selected to pitch are SenoGuard, Eisana Health, Rejuvenate Bio, and Emission Free Generators.

“I couldn’t be more thrilled with the judges’ selection of these four outstanding companies,” said Thorpe regarding the final lineup. “The groundbreaking work they are doing in healthcare and clean technology represents exactly the kind of impact we strive to showcase. We had a massive pool of highly qualified applicants this year, and while it is sadly true that many great companies couldn’t be included, these four finalists truly stand out for their potential to change the world.”

“I am incredibly excited for this live pitch event,” Thorpe added. “It is going to be fascinating to watch our expert judges at work as they pressure-test these offerings in real-time on the broadcast. Their deep industry knowledge and rigorous screening process will give our audience a transparent, educational look into exactly how top-tier investors evaluate Reg CF deals.”

The event will feature live pitches from the executives driving these companies forward: Diana Tucker, CEO of SenoGuard; Carole Spangler Vaughn, CEO of Eisana Health; Daniel Oliver, CEO of Rejuvenate Bio; and Mark Collins, CEO of Emission Free Generators.

File Your Own Form C-AR for Free

Today at Noon Eastern/9:00 Pacific, we’re hosting a special SuperCrowdHour webinar co-hosted by the Crowdfunding Professional Association to show Reg CF issuers how to file their own Form C-AR annual report with the SEC—without paying attorneys hundreds of dollars to do work founders can often prepare themselves.

This process is technical. EDGAR has quirks. Login.gov adds a layer. File names matter more than they should. And the annual report itself needs to be accurate.

That’s why we encourage you to do both:

Women-Led Film “Topple” Aims to Uplift Female Voices in Front and Behind the Camera

tl;dr:

Topple embodies inclusivity by casting women in lead and behind-the-camera roles to address gender inequality.

Ileana is crowdfunding the final development of Topple, inviting investors to join this empowering project.

Hidden Valuation Is a Red Flag for Crowdfund Investors

Teddy Lyons at Kingscrowd has done the investment crowdfunding community a real service with his analysis, “Who’s Hiding the Valuation? A Crowdfunding Transparency Study.” In the piece, Teddy and the Kingscrowd team reviewed 880 equity crowdfunding offerings and documented a troubling transparency gap, especially among Reg A+ offerings.

Since I read Teddy’s post when it was published weeks ago, I’ve reflected on this over and over. It is so important that I decided I need to bubble it back to the top of the conversation in the regulated investment crowdfunding community.

Teddy frames the issue well. “What is a startup actually worth?” he asks. That is the question every investor must answer before making an equity investment. Whether the security is common stock, preferred stock, a SAFE or a convertible note, valuation—or the mechanism for determining valuation—is central to the investor’s prospects for a financial return.

Other deal terms matter, sometimes a great deal. Liquidation preferences, conversion discounts, interest rates, maturity dates, voting rights, pro rata rights and information rights can all affect outcomes. Still, from a financial standpoint, nothing matters more than valuation. A great company can be a poor investment if the entry price is too high. A risky company can sometimes be attractive if the price fairly reflects the risk.

Revolutionizing Healthy Eating with ZeroCarb LYFE

tl;dr:

Omar Atia shares his mission to create indulgent, healthy protein-rich foods with ZeroCarb LYFE.
E-commerce allowed early product testing, feedback, and scaling to over 70,000 customers since 2019.
ZeroCarb LYFE offers products like protein-based pizza crusts, chips, and tortillas for healthier eating.
By engaging customers via a Wefunder campaign, ZeroCarb LYFE invites everyone to be co-owners.
Omar attributes his success to persistence, visionary thinking, and applying consumer insights effectively.

Profitable Impact Investing Requires Due Diligence—But How Much Can You Afford Before Investing $100?

Angel investors have long understood something ordinary investors are now learning: due diligence matters.

A well-known study of angel investors found that investors who spent more time on due diligence tended to earn better returns. The Angel Capital Education Foundation study, led by Robert Wiltbank and Warren Boeker, reviewed more than 1,100 angel investment exits and found that due diligence time, relevant experience and ongoing participation were all associated with stronger outcomes.

That makes intuitive sense.

If you are investing $100,000 in a startup, spending 40 hours studying the company, the market, the management team, the terms and the risks may not only be reasonable but essential.

If you are investing $25,000, the same may still be true.

But what if you are investing $1,000?

What if you are investing $100?

That is the practical challenge facing everyday investors who want to participate in Regulation Crowdfunding.

We want to invest profitably. We want to support companies creating real social or environmental impact. We want to help founders who may otherwise struggle to access capital. But we also have limited time. Most of us cannot spend a full workweek analyzing every offering before making a modest investment.

So, the question is not whether due diligence matters.

Don’t Let a Five-Minute Application Become a Missed Opportunity

Founders are busy.

That is not a cliché. It is the operating condition of the job.

You are selling, hiring, raising capital, serving customers, fixing problems, managing cash, supporting your team and trying to keep one eye on the long-term vision while today’s urgent work demands everything you have.

That is why the easiest tasks sometimes get pushed aside.

Not because they are unimportant.

Because they are easy.

PurposeBuilt100™ applications are open now. The application is free. It takes about three to five minutes.

That makes it tempting to say, “I’ll do it later.”

But this is one of those moments when later can quietly become never.

Impact Investors Deserve Fair Terms

Everyday investors who want to invest for impact run a real risk: we may accept more financial risk, or lower potential returns, than we can afford simply because we care about the mission.

There are times when I absolutely support that kind of philanthropic approach.

I make Kiva loans every month. I do that knowing I won’t earn a financial return. In fact, after defaults and currency losses, I expect to get back a little less than I put in. I’m comfortable with that because I value the impact. In my mind, those are philanthropic investments.

But most of our money can’t be treated that way.

For ordinary investors—people saving for retirement, college, a home purchase, a rainy day or simply a more secure future—most investments need to be priced to produce a reasonable return for the risk involved.

That is especially true in regulated investment crowdfunding.

Reg CF offerings are risky. Startups fail. Small businesses struggle. Even good founders with good intentions can run out of money, miss projections or discover that the market is harder than expected.

Impact matters deeply to me. Every Reg CF investment I make has to pass an impact test. But impact does not eliminate financial risk. It does not make valuation irrelevant. It does not make unfair terms fair.

San Diego Tempeh Featured Among New Impact Offerings - April 20, 2026

Each week, Superpowers for Good shares a list of all the new investment offerings added to FINRA-registered crowdfunding portals and by broker-dealers. We focus on and list first those with social impact and underrepresented founders. We also add other newly launched offerings that may be of interest to our community. We’ll share four separate lists:

Impact offerings determined by our proprietary analysis.
Offerings with minority founders.
Deals with women founders.
Other new offerings added during the week.

Sometimes, it takes weeks for our source to determine that a company has a social impact, a woman, or a minority founder. When we discover an offering qualifies for our list, even if it is no longer new, we will include it. See the lists below.

We’re Officially a Substack Bestseller—Because of You

Today, I’m excited to share a milestone that means a lot to me: Superpowers for Good has officially earned Substack’s Bestseller badge.

That means more than 100 readers have chosen to become Impact Members (paid subscribers).

I’m grateful for that recognition, of course. It’s a meaningful signal on the platform. It adds a little visible credibility. It says something important to anyone discovering our work for the first time.

But what matters to me far more than the badge is what it represents.

It represents trust.

Substack put it beautifully in the note they sent: Few things express trust in media better than a paid subscription. I think that’s exactly right.

To everyone who has chosen to become an Impact Member, thank you. Your support does more than help pay for this work. It validates the mission. It says that stories about impact, community, and investing with purpose matter. It says that shining a light on people using business and capital to do good in the world is worth supporting.

And to our free subscribers, thank you, too.

This Earth Day, Don’t Stop at Habits. Fund Climate Solutions.

Today is Earth Day.

That matters more this year, not because the calendar says so, but because the evidence keeps mounting around us. The World Meteorological Organization says 2015 through 2025 were the hottest 11 years ever recorded. It says 2025 was the second or third hottest year on record, at about 1.43°C above the 1850–1900 average, and that extreme weather last year affected millions of people and caused billions of dollars in losses. None of that is abstract anymore. We can see the damage. We can feel it.

So yes, recycle. Use less. Waste less. Drive less. All of that matters.

But Earth Day should also remind us of something else: our personal habits, while important, are not the only lever we have.

In fact, they may not even be the most powerful lever.

We can only recycle 100 percent of the plastic we buy. We can only avoid buying 100 percent of the plastic we would have purchased. Those choices matter morally. They matter culturally. But they do not scale the way capital does.

Investment does.

We’ll be digging into one of the most important—and misunderstood—documents in regulated investment crowdfunding: SEC Form C.

A Small Invitation: Help Us Build SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100™

Over the past few years, you’ve helped us build something special.

The SuperCrowd community has grown into a vibrant ecosystem of founders, investors, ecosystem leaders and advocates who believe that capital can be a force for good. Together, we’ve helped spotlight entrepreneurs, amplify opportunities for impact investing and bring visibility to innovative companies building a better future.

Now we’re preparing something bigger.

In August 2026, we’ll host SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100, a three-day televised event focused on the future of impact capital formation and the entrepreneurs leading the way. The event will bring together founders, investors and ecosystem leaders—and culminate in the PurposeBuilt100 Showcase, recognizing 100 fast-growing, purpose-driven companies.

Our goal is simple: shine a bright spotlight on companies proving that purpose and growth can go hand in hand.

To make this possible, we’re beginning early conversations with organizations that might want to stand alongside the movement as sponsors.

If you’d like to learn more, we’ve created a simple page outlining the opportunity and sharing our preliminary sponsor deck.

Take a look here: sponsor.SuperCrowd26.com

Please think of this not as a hard pitch, but as an invitation to explore the idea.

The Real AI Economy Will Be Built by Impact Entrepreneurs

The headlines this week have been hard to miss: layoffs in tech, executives talking about efficiency, and artificial intelligence increasingly cited as a reason jobs are disappearing. Challenger, Gray & Christmas says technology companies announced 52,050 job cuts in the first quarter of 2026, the highest first-quarter total for the sector since 2023. In March alone, AI was the leading reason companies gave for layoffs, with 15,341 announced cuts tied to AI, or 25 percent of all cuts that month.

That is real news. But it is not the whole story.

If you only read the layoff headlines, you might conclude that AI is mainly a machine for replacing people. I think that gets the story backward. At the biggest companies, AI may indeed be used first as a cost-cutting tool. Large organizations under pressure to keep growing profits often reach for the lever they know best: reducing headcount. But outside the bubble of big tech, in the world where most Americans actually live and work, AI is more likely to be an enabling technology than a job-destroying one. The real AI economy will not be built primarily by the companies cutting jobs to fund bigger infrastructure budgets. It will be built by entrepreneurs using AI to make small and midsize businesses more capable, more competitive, and more impactful.

PurposeBuilt100™: The Recruiting Advantage of Purpose and Growth

In every job market—hot or cold—one thing never changes: attracting the best people is hard.

Even today, when hiring is a little easier than it has been in recent years, the most talented, mission-driven professionals still have choices. They want meaningful work. They want career growth. And increasingly, they want proof that a company is both values-driven and thriving.

That’s why we created PurposeBuilt100™.

PurposeBuilt100 recognizes the 100 fastest-growing purpose-driven companies in America, highlighting organizations that combine measurable impact with strong, sustained revenue growth.

This recognition is more than a trophy. It’s a signal.

When a company earns a place in the PurposeBuilt100, it communicates something powerful to prospective employees, investors, and partners:

This is a place where purpose and performance coexist.

In our experience covering thousands of impact-driven founders through Superpowers for Good, the companies that attract exceptional talent consistently demonstrate two things:

Authentic mission alignment — people believe the work matters.
Real business momentum — people believe their careers will grow there.

Too often, candidates must choose between these. PurposeBuilt100 companies prove they don’t have to.

Great Companies Aren’t Built Alone

Great companies are never built by founders alone.

Behind every growing company is a team that showed up early, stayed late, solved problems no one anticipated, and believed in the mission when success was far from guaranteed.

That’s why we created the PurposeBuilt100™ Showcase.

PurposeBuilt100 recognizes the 100 fastest-growing purpose-driven companies in America, celebrating not just growth, but the people and culture that made that growth possible. The companies selected will be featured during the televised PurposeBuilt100 Showcase at SuperCrowd26 (August 25–27, 2026) and profiled in a beautifully produced hardcover book distributed to founders, investors, and ecosystem leaders.

What the Inc. 5000 Can’t Tell Us About Purpose-Driven Growth

Each year, thousands of entrepreneurs wait eagerly to see whether their companies will appear on the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies, published by Inc. magazine.

For founders, making the list is more than a vanity milestone. It signals credibility. It tells investors, customers, and partners that a company isn’t just promising growth—it has delivered it. For many companies, appearing on the Inc. 5000 becomes a badge of honor that helps attract talent, customers, and capital.

There’s a good reason the list has become one of the most respected recognitions in American entrepreneurship. It highlights what every founder ultimately strives for: real growth built through execution.

But there’s something the Inc. 5000 can’t tell us.

It can’t tell us which of those companies are building a better world.

When ‘Safe’ Feels Risky: Rethinking Portfolios in an Unstable World

A lot has happened in the past 28 days, since I wrote: “Preparing for the Next Bear Market—Using, Not Avoiding, Regulated Investment Crowdfunding.”

The Dow Jones Industrial Average has fallen 6.7%.

On a $100,000 portfolio, that’s a $6,700 decline.

That’s not theoretical. That’s real money—gone in a month.

And yet, we continue to describe public equities as “safe.”

They aren’t. They are familiar.

The Shock We Didn’t Price In

What triggered the recent decline?

Not earnings reports.
Not interest rate changes.
Not a predictable economic indicator.

Instead, markets reacted to geopolitical conflict—specifically, a sudden and surprising war with Iran and the growing risk of extended regional instability.

And here’s the uncomfortable truth:

Conflicts like this are rarely resolved as quickly as leaders promise.

We’ve seen this before. Wars that begin with expectations of swift resolution often stretch into years. Sometimes decades. The ripple effects—especially when energy infrastructure, shipping lanes, or regional alliances are involved—can reshape the global economy in ways few anticipate at the outset.

For investors, that introduces a category of risk that is both profound and unavoidable.

PurposeBuilt100™ Is Our Boldest Initiative Yet to Help Capital Flow Faster to Purpose-Driven Businesses

Most of our work has one goal: helping more capital flow to businesses that are building really social and environmental value.

That has guided the work we do at Superpowers for Good and across the broader SuperCrowd ecosystem for years. We feature founders. We spotlight offerings. We host live pitches. We educate investors. We build community among entrepreneurs, investors, judges, advisors, and ecosystem builders. In our 2025 Impact Report, we estimated that this work helped catalyze roughly $500,000 in capital while reaching thousands through education and featuring 69 issuers across the year.

But as important as all of that is, I’ve come to believe something even more strongly:

Founders do not need more noise. They need more credibility.

Capital rarely moves on inspiration alone. It moves when investors, partners, customers, and other market participants see a company as real, growing, disciplined, and worth believing in. That is especially true for purpose-driven companies. Too often, they are asked to prove not only that their mission matters, but that their businesses are durable, scalable, and investable.

That is why we created PurposeBuilt100™.

PurposeBuilt100™ is designed to recognize the 100 fastest-growing purpose-driven companies in America through a disciplined review of five-year revenue growth. It is not a popularity contest. It is not a vague “good company” award. It is designed to become a meaningful market signal—one that says this company is building with purpose and proving it with growth.

He shares his mission to empower minority communities to build generational wealth through entrepreneurship.

Devin Thorpe Featured on The TAGLine Podcast (Powered by The Aebli Group): The Blueprint for Impact Investing—Resilience, Returns & the Future of Crowdfunding

Forget everything you think you know about crowdfunding. Justin Starbird sits down with Devin Thorpe—founder of Superpowers for Good and former Forbes contributor—for a candid conversation on what holds investors back, his practical “two-screen” process for evaluating impact deals (beyond the mission), the one trait he consistently sees in successful founders after interviewing 1,000+, and why recognizing profitable, high-impact companies (including the future of PurposeBuilt100™) matters for growing the market. If you’re a founder considering a Reg CF raise, an investor seeking meaningful returns, or simply curious about democratizing capital, this is a must-listen—press play and hear Devin’s unfiltered take on aligning your values with your wallet.

Each week, Superpowers for Good shares a list of new impact-related offerings added to FINRA-Registered crowdfunding portals and by broker-dealers. We’ll share four separate lists:

Impact offerings determined by our proprietary analysis.
Offerings with minority founders.
Deals with women founders.

Sometimes, it takes weeks for our source to determine that a company has a social impact, a woman, or minority founder. When we discover an offering qualifies for our list, even if it is no longer new, we will include it. See the lists below.

“The ship is going down. Save yourself.”

That is what I told our intern back in 2019. I was a solo founder bootstrapping a deep tech biotech company, and I was nearly out of cash.

Devin Thorpe often asks changemakers on this platform to name their superpower. If I had to distill mine, it is relentless resilience. When you are building something difficult, you inevitably hit a wall where you have to decide how committed you really are.

For me, that moment arrived when I looked at my car.

Eric Bennett, Founder and CEO of Frontier Bio, tissue engineering pioneer

My Mazda RX-8 was worth about one more month of runway.

After finding a buyer, I took the scenic route toward the drop-off, weighing the risk and mapping out the next 30 days. Before stepping out of the driver’s seat, I remember the internal monologue vividly: Am I really going to sell my car? Well, what is the alternative? I either buy myself thirty more days to figure it out, or I fold today, walk away, and watch the entire vision die right here. Screw that.

I stepped out of the car. “One condition,” I told the buyer. “I’ll need a ride to my lab.”

At the time, Frontier Bio was still very early, but I was already proving that the technology had practical potential.

Why the Superpowers for Good Live Pitch Is Better Than Shark Tank for Real Investors

On Tuesday, March 17, 2026, at 8:00 PM Eastern / 5:00 PM Pacific, four carefully selected companies will pitch live on Superpowers for Good Live Pitch, a nationally televised event airing on the e360tv Network and available on Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and other smart TV platforms. At the top of this post, we’ll include the player so you can return here and watch the event live.

And that matters.

Because this isn’t just another pitch show built for entertainment.

This is a live, interactive, participatory event designed for people who want more than polished soundbites and performative reactions from celebrity investors. It is designed for people who actually care about discovering promising companies, understanding the founders, asking hard questions, and, if they choose, investing their own money.

That’s what makes the Superpowers for Good Live Pitch different.
