Investing Women Angels

Female Entrepreneurs

Founders

COVID-19 We recognise that everyone is under intense pressure to cope with the consequences of the current emergency and we will continue to support as required as the global economy undergoes a significant reset.

The precise content and nature of our activities will be adapted as circumstances develop and we look forward to sharing updates soon. With an extensive network both nationally and internationally, we will be working together with partners to enable resilience; support recovery and create opportunities for female founders and women angels.

Please also see our list of available resources across support organisations for COVID-19

We are passionate about Founders at Investing Women.  Many of our business angels are or have been entrepreneurs so we understand the journey, the challenges and the excitement.

Our preference is to invest in Scottish-based companies and are particularly interested in companies with one or more female founder.

We receive a high volume of approaches, so please make sure you have read the application process and further information for successful forwarding to our screening group. Our Investing Women Angel group meets six times throughout the year.
Please note that the next Investing Women pitch meeting will take place in September 2020 with screening taking place in August. 

Capital

Our usual range of investment is between £50K and £250K of seed capital in early stage ventures that are based in Scotland and the United Kingdom.  We currently do not invest internationally. We are also able to look at considerably larger investments collaborating with other angel groups.

More Information

Often teams and companies aren’t ready for investment when they first make an approach and simply want to learn about angel investing and being prepared for it.  Our sister organisation, AccelerateHER offers a range of bootcamps and workshops to help female founders become investment ready.
