AngelHub
Believe and Mission
We believe in startups, the founders and their teams, to drive innovation and economic growth. As companies stay private longer and value creation disproportionately shifts to private markets, retail portfolios are left behind. How is it that the average individual can invest in mutual funds and ETFs, but can’t invest in private equity or venture funds, let alone individual companies?
Thanks to the confluence of regulatory advances, technology innovation, and macroeconomic factors, the tides are turning. The private markets are opening, which also provides more opportunity for diverse communities to share in equity upside. AngelHub democratizes the private markets.
AngelHub is the only SFC regulated tech investment platform providing deal by deal highly vetted investment opportunities to our network of professional investors.
We also believe in the power of networks and partnerships. We collaborate with the major tech ecosystem players to source deal flow, as well as to accelerate our AngelHub’s tporfolio to successfully scale to their next phase of growth and expansion to IPO / Exit. With this, we closely work with sister platform WHub.
