View this email in your browser April 23rd: Inside the Mind of an Impact Investor Insights from Chicago's mission-focused angels One of the biggest issues impact entrepreneurs face—aside from solving the world's most pressing problems—is finding and attracting investors who understand both the societal and financial opportunity of mission-focused businesses. This is particularly hard for early stage companies that are testing out nascent business models and still have a lot to prove. So what does it take to get noticed by angel investors who are willing to take a chance on impact entrepreneurs? Join us for a panel discussion with some of Chicago's leading impact investors for insights into their process, from deal sourcing to impact measurement, and more.  Details  April 23, 2014 6 to 8:30 p.m. Design Cloud 118 N.
