Event description

Bootstrapping is an option, however, being able to fully develop an idea and get a functioning product to customers means having to find investors and navigating that early stage ecosystem which can be hard to do alone.  

Philip Argy details what it takes, the do’s and the don’ts and so much more.

“At Sydney Angels we are a group of worldly, experienced business-people who want to give back. We can help founders grow their business and expand their skills matrix”. It’s not easy to be a founder and navigate the complex world of investors, says Philip Argy.

Sydney Angels is one of Australia’s best-known venture funds and alone has seen a five-fold increase in funding applications in the last decade. Tune in, to hear about the real reason you may not be getting angel investment, what it takes to get an Angel investment, how to navigate the complex world of start-up investors and how you can be an early investor.
