SHOOQ is a Jewish media marketplace created by entertainment industry veterans, connecting top-tier Jewish creators across film, television, podcasts, and social media with a broad network of accredited investors and philanthropic funders. The platform is designed to finance and support the development, production, post-production, and marketing of impactful, high-quality Jewish media projects.

For Funders

Fill out your funding criteria (either for-profit or non-profit) and get matched with projects that fit your requirements.  Once matched, funders choose to connect with creatives directly — NO PROJECT FUNDING is managed by SHOOQ, we are simply the MATCHMAKER.  Funders may remain anonymous if desired.

BECOMING A FUNDER

Funders may maintain either a public or private profile.  Project pages are curated and can be sorted by keywords, stage, subject, financing range, and other data points, enabling funders to easily identify opportunities that match their criteria.

When a funder expresses interest, the platform facilitates direct connections between funders and project creators, allowing them to exchange information seamlessly. All deal-making, negotiations and eventual funding take place independently between the parties, outside of the platform.

IMPORTANTLY, funders are provided industry data and ongoing education posted to the platform, as needed, and may opt to engage SHOOQ staff or our team of consultants for guidance and advisory support throughout the process and beyond.
