What You Put In Is What You Get Out

This is not a job. It’s a stake.
A rare entrepreneurial opportunity to create something legendary from the ground up—and we want you in the room.

Minimum commitment: 20 hours/week. If that’s not realistic for you, this isn’t the right fit. No hard feelings—we respect clarity.

We are offering an equity partner role, not a traditional salaried position. That means:

• No upfront cash compensation
• Equity (shares) plus potential future token-based rewards (pending legal clearance)
• Future salary unlocked by revenue milestones
• Remote-first, async-friendly, autonomy-heavy global team

Why Join Anime Universe?

As our Nonprofit & Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Expert, you’ll help us design and execute partnership models that combine public sector alignment with private sector scale. You’ll help fund creativity, tech development, and IP growth—through structures most startups overlook.

Role Overview

You’ll lead the creation of nonprofit and PPP funding pathways for Anime Universe. That includes designing partnerships with museums, universities, cultural foundations, economic development bodies, and public-private innovation funds.

You’ll work across borders, policies, and sectors to activate funding we wouldn’t otherwise access.
