What is the AngelNV Conference

–  Angels say, “there aren’t any investable deals”.
–  Entrepreneurs say, “there aren’t any investors writing checks”.

AngelNV improves both of these issues through two 12 week long educational and event series – one series for founders and the other for angel investors.  Some events in both series overlap – and both educational series conclude in a joint, one-day conference where at least 1 company is funded with $400,000 including $200,000 from investors participating in the angel series and a 1:1 match by the SSBCI program invested by the Battle Born Growth Ventures. 

AngelNV is open to the public for any member of the community interested in learning more about starting a company or investing in a new business. Community members looking to invest must be considered an accredited investor.
