IFS provides a 3 to 6-month program where they work closely with early stage companies, helping them improve their business plans, technology feasibility, marketing strategies, financial projections, and investor documents. They bring in professionals from various fields to assist in the development of the companies. Once the companies are polished, IFS connects them with their network of accredited investors for potential funding. Instead of charging cash fees, IFS takes equity from the companies they work with.
