What is Angel Investing?
A COMMUNITY WHERE INVESTORS CAN CONNECT WITH SMALL AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISES IN THE CARIBBEAN
Angel investing typically involves high-net-worth individuals (successful entrepreneurs, industrialists, corporate/business executives, and investors) investing their own capital and time in start-up and early-stage businesses, with a goal to both make a financial return and contribute to the develop of entrepreneurial communities.
Globally – both in developed countries as well as increasingly in developing countries – angel investing is often a favorable form of capital for seed and early-stage enterprises, as angels generally understand the inherent risks associated with early-stage ventures and have a higher risk tolerance. In addition, angel investors can add a suite of non-financial support to entrepreneur-led enterprises.
