Angel investing is about passion. Angels get involved mainly because they enjoy helping early-stage businesses, mentoring young entrepreneurs, and participating in developing an emerging business. When you enter the angel investors’ world, you will be stepping into a micro-world of investors, advisors, venture capitalists, banks, accountants, lawyers, universities, and entrepreneurs networked together in a somewhat hidden economy. It is a world rich with stories of great successes and unfortunate failures, but it is also a world of creative ideas, extraordinary business adventures, and fascinating people.
