Hear from three Angel Investors as they share their experience being part of AngelCon 2020. An angel investor (also known as a private investor, seed investor or angel funder) is a high-net-worth individual who provides financial backing for small startups or entrepreneurs, typically in exchange for ownership equity in the company. While most people know AngelCon as a pitch competition that happens once a year, becoming an investor is a year-long training process that leads up to the main event. AngelCon 2020 investors Chad, Donica and Jolie will share what the process was like, what they seek in a startup and why they invested in Atlas Alpha. Q & A will be available for attendees.
