Post by Beam, formerly Edquity

We’re excited to share that Beam has been acquired by Nava! Our mission has always been to build digital infrastructure for more just communities. To date, we’ve distributed more than $400M across 40+ states and more than 200 partners; stewarded extremely diverse programs that include rental assistance, child care fee assistance, disaster relief, small business grants, workforce development programs, SNAP-related programs, and more; and have supported federal, state, and local government partners in addition to our roots of higher education and non-profit organizations. We believe that this partnership allows us to take this impact to a new scale that will transform the future of government service delivery. From our CEO: “I’m deeply proud of both the breadth and depth of Beam’s impact – and the way we have acted as a first mover to chart a new category of product administering cash assistance across the entire user and customer lifecycle. But while we’ve accomplished so much, $400M barely scratches the surface of the government benefits landscape,” said David Helene, Founder & CEO of Beam. “Bringing Beam's best-in-class product offering into Nava and pairing it with Nava's track record as a human-centered, outcomes-focused systems integrator to federal and state government, gives me confidence in our ability to deliver simpler, more effective government services at scale. Together, we’re positioned to drive real systemic change not just in 2026 but over the next 10 years.” Read more about the acquisition here: https://lnkd.in/gnVccthY
