Help shape Nova. Refer someone.
You know your network best. If there's someone who'd genuinely benefit from being part of Nova, nominate them. Every great community grows through trusted connections.
How it works
Three simple steps. You nominate, they apply, and if accepted, you both win.
Nominate someone
Go to the Nominate section and submit their name, LinkedIn profile and email. That's it.
They complete their application
Your nominee receives an invitation to fill in their application and join the community.
They become a member
Once approved, they're in. You've just helped expand the community with someone you trust.
Two ways to refer
Choose whichever works best for you. Both work on web and mobile.
Fill in the form
Enter their first name, last name, LinkedIn URL and email directly in the Nominate section. Quick and simple.
Share your link
Copy your personal nomination link and share it with the person you want to invite. They fill in their own details.
Where to share your link
Your nomination link is personal and permanent. Here are some ideas to make the most of it.
Points you earn
You earn Nova points at every stage of the referral. The more your nominee progresses, the more you get.
What can you redeem?
Your points are real currency within Nova. Use them for things you actually care about.
