Whilst there is no universally accepted definition of Angel Investing, it is generally understood as the practice of high-net-worth individuals investing their own time and money in new businesses, with the goal of profiting from their long term growth.
Startups around the world often face funding gaps between what friends and families can offer and what the banks, Venture Capitalists and Private Equity Firms are willing to contribute. This gap is often referred to as the “Valley of Death” and can be nearly impossible to traverse. Angel Investors can fill this void by supplying additional rounds of funding to growing companies.
Further, research shows that startups value the expertise and mentorship that angels provide as much as, if not more than, the financing itself.
Pitches are held monthly, with an event being held in all states and territories around Australia by mid 2024. Pitch Events will be held in a different regional locations each month. Annually, events will be held from February to October, with a Gala Summit to be held in November each year.
