ANGEL GROUPS
Member groups take advantage of a centralized back office that coordinates and runs the core day-to-day services of the group enabling local resources to focus their time and effort engaging and growing membership in the local group.
To ensure that the local group’s voice is represented, and selected companies will appeal to the group’s membership, group staff and volunteers are encouraged to participate in the deal screening process.
Member groups organize and host networking meetings, with support from the Equation team, and watch the Equation Investment meeting stream and/or bring in local companies to pitch in person. Group members are able to access a more fulsome deal pipeline through Dealum, our next-generation angel investing platform.
Once per investment season Equation, the local group and the local group’s incubators and accelerators will co-host a “Best of…” event to showcase your local companies and opportunities to the broader membership.
