Demystifying Angel Investing: An Introduction to the World of Startups
Description

Angel investing used to just be for the rich, now anyone can be an angel investor providing much-needed capital to bring new companies to market.

Join us for a dynamic discussion with leading experts to explore the basics of angel investing, including three reasons to consider angel investing as part of your well-balanced portfolio: 

  • Make a difference: Angels leverage their expertise to help new businesses grow and succeed, changing the economic future of an entire region by investing in small startup companies that eventually employ dozens or hundreds of people. 
  • Make money: While angel investing can be risky, when angels get a homerun, it can provide a 10X or more returns. Plus, many early-stage investments qualify for favorable tax treatment.
  • Have fun: Working with energetic entrepreneurs and getting a front-row seat for mold-breaking innovations is fun! Nothing is more exciting than the spark of a promising new idea.

Spend your lunch hour with us and you will walk away with a solid understanding of this exciting, game-changing investment class.
