Ventures by JaDID is our annual programme dedicated to turning powerful creative ideas into living, breathing ventures with funding, branding, and strategic firepower from JaDID and co. and our partners.
Whether it’s a short film, an online platform, a product, or the next culture-shifting app, we help talented people build from bold idea to full expression. It all starts with a spark and the passion to see it through.
In May, we invite applications from members of The JaDID Directory — our curated talent directory — to submit their venture concepts for development and backing. The journey is as follows:
1. You pitch.
We ask for a compelling idea, a clear Minimum Viable Product (MVP), and the passion to bring it to life. For a short film, that might be a finished script. For an app, a sample user journey or UI.
2. We vet.
Applications are reviewed by the JaDID team, along with external sponsors, investors, and specialists across media.
3. We build together.
Selected ventures receive full or partial funding, as well as end-to-end creative support. That includes everything from brand development and UX design, to content strategy and launch campaigns — steered by the venture's original creator (that’s you).
We’re not bound to a format. If it’s got cultural value, creative potential, and a clear roadmap, it’s eligible.
Think:
We don’t expect a finished product. But we do expect clarity, originality, and a serious intent to build.
A creator-powered entertainment platform housing books, music, films, and games under one intuitive roof. Built for depth over distraction, Nyouma reimagines the digital content experience with capped watchtimes, fair creator compensation, and spatial navigation.
Turning social media wanderlust into reality. This AI-powered platform transforms real-life trips into structured, repeatable travel guides—helping others follow in your footsteps with confidence, clarity, and curated tips. The Alpha is now live.
An immersive sci-fi fantasy universe unfolding across storytelling, sound, and visual media. Created by a JaDID Directory member, WOKU is a transmedia experience unlike any other—set to launch its BETA in Summer 2025.
If you’ve got a concept burning in your chest — or an MVP already in hand — start preparing now.
We’ll open up for submissions in May 2026.
