Our members collaborate on screening and due diligence and pool their investment funds to create critical mass. Each member makes individual investment decisions and understands that investments in early-stage, privately-held ventures are risky and can be illiquid. Typical angel investments can take years before capital is returned, and, in some cases, the company goes out of business and no money is returned. Serving on corporate boards can also expose an individual to substantial personal liability. Our members understand these risks and exposures and evaluate investments on a case-by-case basis.
The Small Business Hub enables small business owners and entrepreneurs to connect and exchange success experiences, tools, and advice, spanning from financing to expansion.
