StageXchange’s mission is to reduce barriers to Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) by streamlining the due diligence process through standardization, information management, and integrated financial modeling. StageXchange aims to amplifying the efforts of economic development offices (EDOs) seeking to connect foreign capital to local enterprises, real estate developments, and infrastructure projects.
Investors often point to a lack of understanding of secondary and tertiary markets as the primary reason.
However, EDOs must provide this data to investors without creating an “Information Overload” situation. Overwhelming an investor with thousands of pages of documentation is a surefire way to stall the process. EDOs need to be conscience that due diligence is an iterative process which is often performed by multiple participants acting in concert. Successful EDOs will not only provide investors and their external advisers what they want, but they will provide it in the manner / format investors require to be efficient. Investors want to evaluate macroeconomic data and investment opportunities in a matter of minutes not hours or weeks.
EDO Search is a public marketplace that seamlessly integrates macroeconomic data sourced by federal, state and regional agencies with curated investment opportunities selected by individual EDOs. Deal specific due diligence is streamlined by collecting, tracking, and organizing information throughout the development life cycle (feasibility, capital raising, construction, and stabilization). In addition to the content provided by developers, the platform is designed to incorporate information obtained from disparate public and private sources. StageXchange effectively “de-risks” opportunities through practical analytical tools (one-click sensitivity) and a “living” pro forma that allows for assumptions to be constantly be updated or replaced with actuals.
With the StageXchange’s EDO Search, you can now control your own curated investment opportunities. Keeping your region specific stats up to date help foreign investors see the value you can offer.
