We have recently been looking at several options of how to invest in startups as new angels. We know that one of the most difficult things about investing as an angel is to find the best startups. Networking and building your brand, as we have seen with top angels such as Brad Feld and Bill Morrow is the key to get access to the best. But this takes time and we are often hungry to deploy our capital.
We therefore have several options, which include joining a club and co-investing in the deals presented by that club, or investing in a fund or specialized company that will do the investments for you. Today we will focus on the latter and give you our tips on how we select the funds or companies we choose.

With many of us confined to our homes, the world switched to a more virtual and delivery-style setup, with those companies unable to conform to this “new” standard losing out completely.
So for this new world, we look forward to what we think will be some of the interesting trends in the startup world, fueled by technology, entrepreneurial spirits and the relentless need to fight a worldwide enemy.
