Angel investors are wealthy individuals who invest in high risk, early stage ventures by using a portion of their total investment portfolios to provide emerging companies with seed and startup capital through direct, private investments. Their goal is to achieve higher returns than typical public markets provide. Most angels are active investors who contribute their time and experience, as well as offer introductions to valuable contacts essential to the company's success.
Though membership isn’t for everyone and the identity of members is kept in strict confidence, the impact you can make as an angel investor will resonate throughout the community. Membership gives you the chance to help entrepreneurs bring their business dreams to life. It gives you a way to play an active role in the creation of a local economy filled with successful ventures that reflect the unique character of our community. And, of course, it gives you the opportunity to earn an above-average financial return on your contribution to the Angel Network.
Membership in the Angel Capital Group gives you the chance to make a difference, make money and make your portfolio what you want - all at the same time.
