Launch Angels was founded on the idea that it should be easy for angel and early stage investors to build a diverse portfolio of high-potential, early stage startups. Our first fund, the Where Angels Fund, brought together a network of former Where Inc. employees and Boston-affiliated entrepreneurs who were interested in investing in technology-enabled startups. Launch Angels helped the Where Angels with fundraising, managed all legal and compliance requirements, and managed the investment process. Within a year, we built a portfolio of twelve promising companies and even had our first exit. Along the way Launch Angels developed an open and transparent investing process that enables both experienced and first-time investors to gain a unique insight into early stage venture capital.
