Illinois Investment Network

Our Refund Policy

In the case that a proposed entrepreneur/investor contact does not take place at all, Dealflow Solutions Ltd. (parent company of Illinois Investment Network) will provide a 100% refund to entrepreneurs after the proposal listing period expires.

All refunds require that a letter be sent (via email or posted) explaining the reason for the request. We reserve the right to authenticate all claims.

Please note - The Illinois Investment Network is solely a matching service and can offer no guarantee to any entrepreneur that an investor will invest in their business. In an effort to maximize credibility, each investor has completed an eligibility process stating that they are a credible investor among other things. Although these guidelines are in effect and we do everything possible to enable successful contacts, it is beyond the control of Illinois Investment Network what happens once an actual entrepreneur/investor match is made. We caution both parties to have patience and proceed cautiously.

Illinois Investors

United States > Illinois

Investment firm based just outside Chicago, IL. We are a specialized investment group focused on identifying investment opportunities in consumer products and services primarily in the household, outdoor, pet and personal care segments. We believe these segments have been overlooked and disenfranchised by traditional venture capital firms. Because these segments have been largely ignored by most capital providing sources, there are hungry yet qualified company founders who can greatly benefit from financial & managerial support thus presenting attractive investment opportunities. We look for startup companies that will become major industry participants that are built around innovative products, unique services and strategies coupled with dynamic, passionate founders that create new markets or reshape existing ones.
