We are excited to announce ConnectUp Institute’s

Integrated Capital Fund

Providing Black, Brown and Rural founders the right capital, at the right time, for the right price to 'next' stage businesses across Minnesota.

What we do

Close the capital and resource gaps

ICF supports 2nd-stage Black, Brown and Rural Founders across Minnesota.
WE POWER ACCESS, OPPORTUNITY, AND SUCCESS by providing the three C’s: capital, capacity and community.

Capital

We provide a blended capital stack that includes: grants, debt, and equity as well as alternative financing to support business growth. We also engage founders in positioning them for larger, traditional capital investments.

capacity

Businesses get more than advice. They get the fractional executive support they need to get things done to increase revenue.

community

Founders are given access to curated groups of tactical networks that provide relevant and on-going support systems to continue growing their business.
