𝐒𝐈𝐀 - 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐩 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 runs hands-on angel investor training programs designed for professionals who want to start investing in startups, or sharpen their existing investing skills alongside a global network of peers. Our “learning-by-doing” methodology puts participants at the center of real investment decisions. Through a structured, guided process, they evaluate live deals, join due diligence teams, and invest real capital. Along the way, they gain deep, practical experience in every step of the angel investing journey, from sourcing and screening to negotiating and closing. SIA attracts a diverse community of angel investors, VCs, family offices, and other investment professionals who want to enhance their practice and collaborate across borders. We are the European counterpart to Mossy Ventures’ flagship program, the Seattle Angel Conference (SAC), which has been growing investor and founder ecosystems in the U.S. since 2012. To date, the program has trained 1,000+ angel investors and supported over 1,800 startups, with alumni collectively investing over $300 million into early-stage companies around the world.

21Creators is a digital content subscription platform that allows content creators to monetize their content. We connect influencers with their fans.

At BeerSights we provide insights in the global craft beer market. Our goal is to create opportunities for breweries to collaborate and grow their business.

As a friend of the business I will guide you down the scary road into the startup world.
