Learn about Angel Investing

We invite you to join our angel investing team. Every investor is invited to workshops that are held throughout the year. You will also receive invitations and preferential pricing to workshops organized by the National Angel Capital Organization (NACO). If you choose to become an active investor you may also be paired with a mentor.

In our E-Fund Orientation Session you will get an overview of how we work in teams to source, screen, do due diligence and post investment management.

In our Investment Management Seminar we take you through the tools that we use to find the best investment opportunities for E-Fund’s, and we’ll talk about post investment management and supporting our portfolio companies in their growth path.
