Exceptional Service
We are a boutique version of a venture capital fund. We work hand in hand with our investors. Since we don’t have large amounts of investors, we can take the time to answer questions and update our clients as needed. Crowdfunding is always an alternative to working with a fund similar to ours, but you will never understand the intangibles of the management teams and the small things that will make a startup successful. We are able to gauge those intangibles and explain them to our investors.
Passion
Angel investing our passion. Being able to meet new people, learn about their business, and watch it grow is a very rewarding experience. Investing in them and seeing a solid return on investment is a perk. If you are interested in learning more about investing with us or if you have a company looking for funding or advisors, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
