A quick thread. (1/5)

1/ We designed Angel Squad with inclusion in mind. Since launching in January, we now have:

* ~500 members
* 17 countries represented
* 40% women
*250+ curated 1:1 intros made to like-minded peers
* $10M invested in 20+ companies via Angel Squad. One deal already is up 3X!

2/ Angel Squad isn’t just for people in tech. We want NEW voices to join angel investing, and our community also includes doctors, lawyers, allergists, chefs, artists, and more.

3/ Here is what Squad member Erin has to say about Angel Squad:

"I've attended a number of angel programs, but nothing is like Angel Squad. The highlight for me has been seeing founders pitch, hearing analysis from the Hustle Fund team, and then having the choice to invest."

4/ We’ve received some great coverage about Angel Squad in the press, including:

This awesome TechCrunch piece by @bayareawriter: techcrunch.com/2021/05/10/hus…

And this awesome feature in The New York Times: nytimes.com/2021/08/09/tec…

5/ Please consider applying to Angel Squad 5, applications open TODAY. If you have a friend whom you think might be a good fit, please spread the word!

We’re especially interested in more women and underrepresented, but all are welcome of course!
