There was no strategic goal to build venture backed startup companies, but yet at least three companies in her community got VC investment last year.

The median number of Director seats held by angel groups for their 2022 investments was 4.5,

For many VCs, the exit is the endgame; you cash in and move on. But as we know, the startup world is evolving, and that means the impact of investment is no longer limited to how much money is made.

Venture capital investing offers different challenges than those associated with tech entrepreneurship, but Alex Mittal, co-founder and CEO of FundersClub, approached the sphere of venture capital the same way he did as a tech founder previously: is there a better way to do this?

The sharp reversal in 2022 from bubble to sober economics is well illustrated by Pitchbook’s index(1) of how founder or investor friendly the investing climate is. By mid-2022 the index had quickly reversed from a founder to investor friendly investing climate. Did angels pull back from investing? Did we do fewer deals?
