36 Top Angel Investors according to German Women Entrepreneurs
To build generation-defining businesses it needs at least the five Ts:
exceptional talent and team, a big enough total addressable market, good timing, technology to scale, and traction as path to profitability. 💰 It also needs money to take a startup to profitability and grow fast. High growth companies almost always need to burn capital to sustain their growth prior to achieving profitability.
The good news is that there are lots of investors hoping to give the right startup money. The bad news is, fundraising is hard – even more so, if you are keen to diversify your cap table. For access to women angel investors this is for you.We asked 200 founders about their most value-adding angel investors.
👉🏾 Here are the 36 trailblazers who were named the most.
Let’s take a second to cherish their commitment on partnering up very early on. They are individuals with a proven track record offering more than just capital, they help with mentorship, networking, and strategic growth. 🔗 If you are interested in accessing them, please let us know and we are happy to provide the names.
💡 There was also a big “moment of truth”:
50% of the asked women founders who relevantly raised within the past seven years do not have a single woman – either angel or professional – investor at their cap table even though they aimed for it. Let’s just highlight: If it is about access, we at Evangelistas are over 350 angel investors across Europe. We all enjoy serving and accelerating the success of the most diverse founders.
