About Event

Propel Earth presents an exclusive investor dinner with Own. — the team building the first social media platform on prediction markets, as they close their Pre-Series A round.

Join the Own. founders for an intimate, curated dinner: a small, vetted group of accredited investors meets the founders in person over dinner for a direct look at the company, the category, the traction, and the round, followed by an intimate Q&A. Built for serious investors who want close, face-to-face access to a fast-moving consumer AI company.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Own. is the first social media platform built on prediction markets — where creators compete and audiences stake real money on outcomes. Think TikTok crossed with prediction markets and agentic AI, all powered by OWN-XID, an identity layer for the agentic-AI internet.

It sits at the intersection of three of the largest current waves — the creator economy, prediction markets, and agentic AI — and the team is moving now, ahead of full public launch in July 2026.

The company is closing a $10M SAFE at a $65M valuation cap, with the round expected to close on or around July 10, 2026. The company reports that, on close, an SPV (backed by the New York Liquid Fund and a Hong Kong PE and insurance group) is set to activate, after which the company plans to step its valuation to approximately $190M and target a Series A north of $250M in Q1. Per the company, this dinner represents an early entry point ahead of a planned valuation step-up. These are company-reported plans, not guarantees; see the full disclaimer below.
