Archangels offers the benefit of occupying an area of the funding market which straddles traditional business angel funding and moves into the area occupied traditionally by venture capital. Portfolio companies receive the benefit of having access to the wide Archangels network including our members and the other portfolio companies. The business angel approach allows for greater alignment with our portfolio companies. Archangels also takes a patient capital approach, understanding that building a successful technology business from scratch takes time.
