The recently re-launched US Angel Investment Network site wants to target the US market and leverage crowdfunding to match entrepreneurs with angel investors. The network was founded in London 2004 and now claims over 30 different networks in 80 different countries – including the United States.
Angel investments continue to become a more viable option thanks to crowdfunding. The network sees the main advantage is the ability for start-ups to present possible ventures in a more public space.
The trend of financing start-up business ventures through either crowdfunding or angel investing has been on the rise for the last 10 years. The way business is financed will continue to evolve and adapt. The Angel Investment Network recognizes the changing environment and want to facilitate both investors and businesses with the most suitable method for their needs. With currently over 500,000 members worldwide, and a database that grows by the day, Angel Investment Network has one of the largest online angel investment community today.
