About

Illuminated is business advisory firm catering to clients that value a double bottom line approach.

Investment approach

Thesis
The core philosophy of Illuminated is that the community has a seat at the table. We know there is abundant opportunity for smart entrepreneurs, and the best managers will be rewarded. After a portfolio candidate’s management has identified new or expanding markets, the managers must have the courage to collaborate with all stakeholders early and often. This concept of a free exchange of ideas in a plentiful market will yield additional opportunity, perspective, and resources, thus creating additional returns.Source (opens in a new tab)
Eligibility
Acting as a steward of the community. Accepting the responsibility to partner with other stakeholders to grow societal infrastructure. Understanding that business is not a zero-sum game; there is plenty of opportunity for all. Creating both financial and social returns. Priority to women owned and led businesses.
Investing status notes
Illuminated also invests for its own account.
