Attracting Funding

IW acts as coach, liaison and facilitator, connecting entrepreneurs with the most likely angel and institutional investors.  We can help you:

  • Develop your funding pitch, tailored to a targeted funding source based on your product, market, company stage and team
  • Prepare for due diligence that will be necessary
  • Review term sheets from prospective investors
  • Advise you on how to structure the deal

Our process has worked with hundreds of companies in Southwestern PA—in 2008, we helped companies here attract $149M in follow-on funding.  Investors have seen the value of IW’s involvement early on.

 

In 2008, 70% of all venture capital investments in SW PA went to IW portfolio companies.
