Examiner : University of Michigan fund invests in sustainable food company Jack & Jake’s

July 2012 - Ross students head up the SVF, which U-M launched in 2009. The Jack & Jake’s investment is the second in the fund’s brief history, following one made earlier this year in Learn Zillion, which connects students, parents, and teachers online.
