Since 1997, The Angels’ Forum (TAF) has been investing in, mentoring and advising Silicon Valley startups from the seed stage all the way through a meaningful exit. We are a diverse group of 25 high net worth private investors, all of whom have been CEO’s, founders or senior executives of successful entrepreneurial ventures. We have the capital, time, experience, skills and passion to work with other entrepeneurs to build disruptive companies. |
|
Our focus is on seed and early stage companies in a wide range of industry sectors (see below). We limit our investments to companies headquartered within 50 miles of Mountain View, CA. In the earliest, most fragile stages of a venture, proximity is important. As a result, our resources are close by when entrepreneurs need them most.
Life Sciences
We evaluate and invest in medical devices, pharmaceuticals, diagnostics and therapeutics. We understand the challenges associated with developing these businesses and have the expertise to improve the chances of success.
Technology
We consider both enterprise and consumer products in the SaaS, mobile, IT and internet spaces. In addition we are also interested in evaluating new capital efficient clean technologies.
Consumer Products
We are unique in that we invest in consumer product companies. From a children's clothing company to a chain of organic resturaunts, we focus on capital efficient companies that are worthy of acquisition or IPO.
