Entrepreneurs who start their funding journey using IFW's proprietary mix of capital, coaching, and connections to prove demand for their products or services are exponentially more likely to raise follow on capital and run successful businesses. Fun fact: our alumni are highly coveted by institutions who want to fund them with grants, and by the press who want to write about them (that's you). What's more, IFW has become a trusted pipeline to angel investors and seed-stage venture capital firms. If you are an IFW crowdfunding alum, you should definitely register for our Alumni database.
