💡 Do you know what an Angel Syndicate is? An angel syndicate is a group of investors who share resources, knowledge, and deal flow – offering a powerful pathway for women to enter the world of investing. Why syndicates matter: 🧠 Access to Expertise You get to benefit from the collective knowledge of seasoned investors in the group. ️ ♻️ On-going Education You’ll have the opportunity to learn from the experiences and best practices of fellow syndicate members. Some syndicates even run dedicated education programmes. 💷 Deal Flow With syndicates, you gain access to a wider variety of investment opportunities that might not be available to solo investors. 🔎 Enhanced Due Diligence You can conduct more thorough due diligence through the combined efforts and insights of the group. As Roxane Sanguinetti of Alma Angels says: “Today the main barriers I see for women becoming angel investors are connections and confidence. Angel investing isn’t a solo game, we do better as a community because getting exposure to the experience, expertise and deal flow of other angels builds up the confidence to get started and to continue to back groundbreaking early stage ventures.” Did you know? While just 14% of UK angel investors are women, female angels back 25% of female-powered businesses – a testament to the power of women supporting women. A new Angel Investing Report “Gaining Altitude”, by The Entrepreneurs Network and the Invest in Women Taskforce, found that syndication offered a number of benefits to women aspiring to become angel investors, but more is needed to increase the awareness of angel groups and syndicates.
