About us
Startups that are growing often need to take outside capital. One of the pathways is to take Angel Investing. In the local San Diego startup community, the community benefits from more people engaging in Angel Investing as well as having stronger startups who are investment ready. This group will explore the issues related to startups taking their first round of outside funding, both from the investor side and the entrepreneur side. 10% of the community is federally qualified to make Angel Investments. We will explore what that looks like.
