OUR APPROACH

Whether you are an investor looking to discover emerging opportunities, or an entrepreneur looking for a nurturing environment to grow your idea, the partners of StepStone are well equipped to guide you.

You see, in our careers we've been both entrepreneurs and angel investors at one time or another. We're keenly aware of the stumbling blocks faced by both parties, but have the proven experience to offer excellent advice and education to overcome them.

We offer personalized services to our angel investors and entrepreneurs through a unique process that combines education and superior due diligence. Our goal is to maximize the value that we bring to our clients by leveraging our experience in early stage start-ups and capital procurement as well as excellent relationships in the industry that allow us to deliver results and solutions that create win-win situations for all stakeholders.

StepStone Business Partners, LLC was established in 2008. It is a privately held company working in the greater Indianapolis area, and throughout Indiana to stimulate economic growth and prosperity in the region by linking quality investors to high-potential early-stage companies. This work is driven both by the acute need for more financial and strategic support for promising enterprises in the life sciences sector of the local economy and by the interest and capability of many existing and potential investors.  

We strive to serve as a solid foundation of support for young companies transitioning into the next stage of organizational development.  We recognize the need to provide customized services tailored to meet the needs of early-stage companies and angel investors, and as such, we spend considerable time and effort to ensure that we provide the highest value for our constituents.
