Idea Finishing School

The Idea Finishing School (IFS) is more of an accelerator than an incubator.  We put the kick start in an early stage company.

Most of our EARLY STAGE COMPANIES (ESCs) have come from Major Texas Universities and sometimes right off the streets.

The IFS has 16 in-house accredited investors looking for the next big whatever.  It’s the Finishing School’s job “in simple terms” to do the due diligence of these ESCs.  The IFS puts them through 3 to 6 months of rewriting and understanding the value of their business plan, the feasibility of their technology, the development of their marketing strategy, designing a convincing pro forma, and completing a suitable offering document for their particular investor type.  We bring legal, accounting, and marketing professionals to help develop the candidates company and then we take this polished company to our investors for possible funding.  We do this all for a fee of equity, not cash.

The IFS can help you accelerate that business and if need be, put you in front of qualified investors.  We have them.

Located appropriately in the San Antonio Technology Center, the IFS is a Texas corporation with a unique combination of skilled collaborators and investors who believe in American entrepreneurs.
