Finalize Conclusions
A formal diligence report summarizes research findings and recommends if a grant should be made to the Investment Committee.

“Board members that participated in the evaluation met with me afterwards to discuss what we learned and to create a punch list for things we can improve going forward. Thank you for affording us this learning opportunity!”
