In addition to traditional institutional capital, our investors include highly accomplished retired or senior C-Level Executives, including Board Chairmen, CEOs, Presidents, COOs, etc. A number of them work closely with IR principals to assist with portfolio companies, prior- and post-transaction as needed.

The investor group represents a fusion of disciplines: the Founder, Chairman and CEO of one of the largest enterprise groups in the Midwest that owns manufacturing enterprises, alternative power generation plants, energy reserves, and ski and golf resorts; the Vice Chairman and former Chief Creative Officer of one of the world’s largest advertising conglomerates; lean manufacturing implementers; IT technology architects; and entrepreneurs.

This group embodies experts in many fields that render multi-level experience and bring particular value and insight to IR’s portfolio companies.

All have built significant personal wealth through nurturing companies to the top leadership positions in their respective industries and building measurable shareholder value.

Nearly all of IR’s investors have offered valuable advice and coaching to our businesses when requested by the CEOs.
