OVERVIEW

Join Kelly Sievers, Managing Director of Women’s Capital Connection, as she walks participants through what it takes to become an angel investor.

Many angel investors are members of angel groups like Women’s Capital Connection and Mid-America Angels in our region. These networks allow the angels to increase their access to investment opportunities and diversify their investment portfolio.

What to expect as an angel investor member of WCC:

  • Gaining access to deal flow
  • Lowering risk in investing
  • Increasing investment diversification
  • Ability to conduct better due diligence
  • Ability to make more sizable and meaningful investments
  • More power to control the success of startups invested in
