In the U.S. and to an emerging degree the UK's SE, entrepreneurs have emerged from tech corporates or from their own successful companies with money and expertise to re-invest. These people are more than just "business angels" in the normal sense - they are super angels.
Their presence has created a "chocolate fountain" of cash and support for earlier stage stage enterprises.
We think these kind of advantages can be brought to the NW, despite the fewer number of such people.
One of the keys is being able to build up a suitable bank of sector experts in order to work in a much closer and deeper relationship with earlier stage tech companies than is the norm for a standard venture funding due diligence process. We seek to nurture companies.
NW Super Angels is the creation of a platform* to facilitate the interaction of great people with great projects.
Please contact us if you feel you can bring something relevant and substantial to the process of making North West business angels activity more effective.
We look forward to speaking with you.
Whilst we believe we have a very strong core team in place, we are always open to extra expertise and fresh input.
* For the avoidance of doubt, these activities are not to be construed as an investment vehicle, nor as the offering of investment advice. NW Super Angels is designed to create a forum and opportunities for expert and serious advisors/potential investors to become aware of interesting projects within the region. Investment advice can only be given by suitably regulated individuals or companies and NW Super Angels advocates that anyone pursuing monetary investments avails of such advice.
