Learn how to make money with smart investments in local businesses. This event is perfect for:

Already, local Chicago businesses like Urban Juncture and the Chicago Steak Company are using Kickstarter-like websites where you can invest as little as $100 in good local businesses.We run a local investing platform called VestLo and are here to help you have fun learning skills that will enable you to make smart, real investments that make you real money while building the future of Chicago.
Learn How to Make Smart Investments
In this event, you'll learn how to use the FOUR system for choosing companies to invest in. You'll learn how to:
- Understand the simple financial clues you can use to make good decisions
- Decide if an ownership team has the right stuff to grow their business
- Figure out if it seems like the company is offering something people want (and will want more of in the future)
One week before the event, you'll receive a free, interactive digital study packet that will give you a chance to learn local investing skills prior to the event. On the day of the event, we'll jump right into the local investment simulation game where you'll have a chance to test your skills using real life case studies. After the game, we'll break for free pizza and refreshments provided by Eazl and Redshelf.
