The Garage University Advantage
Since opening our doors, Garage University's Supernova program has democratized startup formation for founders from all walks of life
The Supernova Advantage
What Makes Supernova Different Than Your Average Venture Fund?
We're Here To Build With You, Not Invest
We act as your co-founder, not just a funder — providing full-stack product, design, and GTM support.
Our team builds alongside you, handling execution from idea to launch.
You get operational firepower, not just capital.
We Only Focus on Idea-Stage Founders
We exclusively work with startups at the idea or pre-product stage.
No traction? No team? No problem — we help you start from zero.
Perfect for first-time founders or domain experts turning insight into action.
Revolutionary tech-debt financing model
Through NvestBank, we cover up to 90% of your development costs in exchange for equity.
No personal collateral, no loan — just shared upside if you win.
If the startup fails, you owe nothing. Founder-first funding with zero risk.
