Abstract: Prosesses and apparatus to operate an incentive award program wherein a Business Entity establishes a wholly owned Company that conducts essentially no other business than providing shares of its equity to recipients of said awards who have made purchases from it. Thereby, a pure positive feedback loop is generated that can scale indefinitely: Additional Paid-In Capital flows to the Company, its share price increases from so operating profitably whereby additional recipients are incentivized to transact and yet more profits result causing even more recipients to transact. Operation of the program is detailed in several different market sectors. Early adopters of the program particularly benefit by their holdings of shares being marked-to-market as the Company's share price escalates. Recipients can sell their shares at then market value where the Company's shares trade.
