Wisconsin Investment Partners was founded in 2000 with 20+ members, and membership has grown to 100+ members in recent years. The group's investment focus is life science oriented seed investing with growing interest and knowledge in attractive projects outside this charter. Most investments are Wisconsin based. Meetings are held each month on the 3rd Wednesday in the mornings. Typically, a presentation is made by a new company, which has been screened by interested members. The network has invested in more than 25 projects with an average of $250,000 per project. Each member decides his or her investment for each project. There is no annual minimum for investments and the group has averaged 3 new investments each year. The investments are made via an LLC, which is set up exclusively for each investment. Membership in Wisconsin Investment Partners requires a $5,000 one-time fee.
