Building the next ones
Cool Inc gives the group its own product, design and engineering team, so the next company gets built as well as backed.
Giving is not a footnote.
Entourage supports non-profits that deliver real services to children and families in need. The drives run every year, and the involvement goes past writing a cheque.
They are the unsung heroes in the Las Vegas community, helping so many local young people on the path to success.

About
Jon C. Wolfe
Founder, Chairman & CEO
Jon founded Entourage in 2009 after more than twenty-five years running technology and operations inside the gaming industry. He built House Advantage, the Las Vegas loyalty platform behind HALo, into an international business, and Light & Wonder acquired its assets in 2022.
Today he invests in and builds technology and lifestyle companies, takes board seats where he can be useful, and gives the same attention to the charities the group supports.

For founders
What happens after you pitch.
01

No deck needed to start. What you are building, who it is for, and where you are stuck.
02
You hear back within a week
Either way. A no comes with the reason, so you are not left guessing.
03
If it fits, you meet Jon
The conversation covers what you need beyond money: the build, the board, the introductions.
Contact
Tell us what you are building.
If your company fits the way we invest and build, we would like to hear about it. Founders get a reply from a person, not a form letter.
