20 14 worked in the secretariat of China Young Angels Association, and China Young Angels Association had the largest number of angel investors. The method I recommend is of course to pay attention to the activities of the Little Angels Association. It holds large-scale annual meetings in Shanghai and Beijing every year, and at least thirty or fifty well-known investors will attend.
At present, well-known investors such as, Niu,,, Zhu Bo, Huang Mingming,,, Mai Gang,, Zhang and wangtong will attend this annual meeting.
Of course, if such meetings are noisy, even if you find them, you can't talk about them or make an appointment. You can pay attention to the official account of Young Angels' WeChat. Generally, they will organize roadshows in1-February, with a scale of 30-50 people, which is relatively easy to get in touch with.
In addition, you can learn more about 100 Angel Committee and Zhongguancun Angel Alliance, among which there are many well-known angel investors.
There are also many activities organized by entrepreneurial media, such as the annual meeting of 36Kr, Entrepreneurship State, Entrepreneurs and Zero2IPO, and many angel investors will be present.
Another way is to attend a training class. Entrepreneurs, entrepreneurial States and other platforms have well-known investors in the form of apprentices.
I have participated in the entrepreneurial Gobi in the past three years, and it is also a good platform to know investors.
At the end of August every year, everyone goes to Gansu, near Xinjiang, and walks on the Gobi for four days. Don't talk about work, forget to start a business and invest, that is, form a team and complete the hiking race. Hundreds of entrepreneurs and dozens of investors go hiking in Gobi every year. Lenovo Star, innovation works and other well-known investment institutions are one of the sponsors, led by investors.
A more effective way is to mobilize friends around you to introduce investors. Chatting will be much smoother with friends endorsing.
Since everyone dares to start a business, you should make good use of all the friends you have known before. Even if you haven't contacted him for a long time, you can synchronize what you have done with him and ask him if he knows any friends who make investments. At this time, don't choose whether the investors introduced by these friends have fame or decision-making power. Going out and communicating with investors is good for our entrepreneurs.
If you get to know friends through the introduction of several friends, and then enter the venture capital circle through them, the number of friends will continue to increase, and the contact with first-line investment institutions will become closer and closer.
Simply put.
1, is to participate in activities with many investors present;
2. Ask friends to introduce people who can catch up with the investment. I met some entrepreneurs whose investors were introduced by their parents or peers.
3. Find an institution that specializes in docking investment with FA.
If your entrepreneurial project is good and the founding team is well-founded, I suggest you also find some brand investment institutions and angel investors who have invested in good cases. At this time, it is not bad to entrust a FA company to attract investment.
Good things can naturally sell at high prices, and good intermediaries can make all parties have good gains. The third is to entrust an intermediary or an intermediary company.
4. Find a senior media person.
In other words, you can talk to a reporter who has been in the venture capital industry for a long time. If they are interested, they can report on entrepreneurial projects, and they can also help them get to know investors. As long as you have been in the venture capital field for more than 3 years, it is not a problem to know investors above 10.
Finally, my suggestion is not that good projects can't find angel investors, but that there are not enough investors. We found that there were 65,438+00 investors and 65,438+00 investors did not vote. Don't be discouraged, just find twenty or thirty investors. As long as you are firm in your entrepreneurial spirit, you will always find a suitable investor.
Believe that.
You made the same mistake as many entrepreneurs who need financing!
Why do you say that?
If you want to get the answer you want, you should describe your question clearly.
Financing is a very complicated matter, if you want to get useful information to find investors through headline question and answer. At least the following information shall be published:
First, what is your product? Just briefly introduce your product. I guess many people still don't know how to describe their products.
Second, what is your team like? What is your project development plan?
Third, how much does it cost? What are these funds mainly used for? How did these funds get into your company? Is it to give these investors equity, interest or corresponding products?
The fourth is how much you can give back to those who invest in you, and when.
The simpler the question you ask, the harder it is to answer you.
As a result, many people will give you some answers that waste your time. Instead of this, why don't you spend more than ten minutes or even half an hour describing your question clearly and let someone who can understand the question or help you give you the answer you want!
The cost of timely communication is a very big investment in the process of starting a business!
I answer you from the channel of looking for angel investors:
1. Find financial advisors directly, such as Zero2IPO Capital, Huaxing Capital, Ethereum Capital, etc.
Advantages: worry-free and labor-saving, professional financial consultants, and some will help you reorganize and optimize your business plan; And according to the industry and stage of the project, even the style of the project, recommend investors who are suitable for you. From partners to investment managers, there will always be investors who are suitable for you.
Disadvantages: high cost.
2. Find and hook up investors directly through similar platforms such as "Project Workshop".
Advantages: It can directly connect with the investors themselves through the platform, which is direct and efficient.
Disadvantages: the premise is that you need to have some basic understanding of the investors you are looking for, such as what field are you good at? Investment style, etc. Otherwise, it will be difficult to wait for a reply.
3. Contact and hook up with investors by attending various conferences on venture capital or online and offline courses on similar platforms (such as Dune University).
Advantages: You can have some basic communication with investors based on activities or courses, leaving a good impression on investors and making it easier to communicate further later.
Disadvantages: the quality of various activities and courses is uneven, which requires continuous participation and screening, and the time cost is high.
In short, you can try many channels, and more importantly, express your project as clearly and concisely as possible in the process of contacting investors!
Entrepreneurial team comes first.
Investors mainly refer to investors who invest in the seed wheel. The investment at this stage is often early, the business model has not been fully verified, and the operational data is not sufficient.
Angel investment, like other stages of investment, is relatively influenced by the economic environment.
Looking for angel investors should pay attention to the following points:
First, pay attention to the wind direction of the investment market.
Generally speaking, the economic environment is developing well, the business performance of enterprises is good, the financing of investment institutions is relatively difficult, the sources of funds are sufficient, and the probability of investment in start-up projects is high;
On the other hand, when the economic environment is weak, it is difficult for enterprises to operate, and the sources of funds for investment institutions are reduced and the funds are insufficient. Investment institutions enter the passive post-investment management period, and the pre-investment work is weak, making it more difficult to invest in start-up projects.
As far as the current situation is concerned, due to the slow economic growth, the pressure of enterprises' operation is great, and it is difficult for investment institutions to raise funds. Most funds are in an active post-investment management stage, focusing on withdrawal and cash flow recovery, which leads to the shortage of funds in most institutions. Many types of "money-burning projects" are less likely to be invested, and early projects with immature business models and insufficient data are more difficult to finance.
Second, evaluate the feasibility of the project.
In the case of financing difficulties for investment institutions, investment institutions are often more cautious and have relatively high requirements for entrepreneurs. Generally speaking, the contingent requirements are as follows:
Start-ups have certain data support and real data sources;
Start-up companies have good team background and rich management experience, preferably senior executives of other related large companies;
Start-ups have certain resources and contacts to endorse, and their ability to resist risks is relatively large.
Third, try different paths to find angel investment.
Most teams of startup companies will find funds by looking for investment institutions. Specifically, they will send the business plan to the mailbox of the investment institution to participate in the conference activities, and their chances of winning such actions are very small. Of course, one-on-one interviews are better than the above, but at the same time, in such an environment, the chances of winning the vote are still very small. My personal suggestions are as follows:
Find a reliable FA that all related industries know, and it must be a FA with performance or certain industry recognition;
Through the upstream and downstream enterprises in their own industrial chain, they can obtain seed round financing, not only funds, but also good resources.
In short, the current financing environment is relatively poor, which is a test for start-ups. In addition, for entrepreneurs who intend to start a business but have no clear understanding of their own project model, it is recommended to carefully consider starting a business.
Thank you for inviting me. I am a bear, a reformer.
First of all, if you want to find an angel investor, you have to have a good project. And it is not just a good idea, but a clear plan and goal for your own project, a formal business plan, and generally a serious delivery channel. If you block investors in the road, I'm afraid you will be considered a bad person. Investors generally cherish time as much as gold. If you only have a good idea, or a simple idea that can't be understood in two sentences, then you may have to take some money from investors.
When preparing your own business plan, it should be noted that if you are confident enough about your own project, you can choose funny writing instead of the usual way, but this maverick must meet Bole. Generally speaking, a formal business plan is of course the safest. Formal means correct format, proper expression, clear thinking and informative content. In particular, you should emphasize your advantages instead of just talking about one idea. Let investors really see that you have the ability or potential to effectively plan and control the risks of the whole project.
Then, regarding the channels for finding investors, angel investors are generally needed. Some investors can talk about the next step after seeing that your project is good. Some people may think that your project is good, but their impression of you is not as good as his own, so they may not be willing to continue cooperation. For example, your own credibility, leadership planning ability and quality are all reference factors. If you don't know where to find investors, you usually know who will give you the next interview first. If you really have research and belief in your project field, I believe it is not difficult. After determining the target, you can contact investors through the investment company as an intermediary, or you can contact each other directly through social media. Of course, you can't talk about your project in public or on the platform before the interview is confirmed.
Angels may be nearby. If you fulfill your own requirements, the angel will naturally find you?
There are many such channels, which can be roughly divided into two types. Facing investors and entrepreneurs.
For investors, such as 36Kr, Ether, Fangchuang, Angel Exchange, etc., what investors have in common is to screen projects, because they are responsible for investors and let them see high-quality and good projects. The charging method is also aimed at investors.
For entrepreneurs, for example, if we get together, I won't advertise the rest! One thing entrepreneurs have in common is that they don't screen projects, but mainly do quick docking feedback. Because the quality level of the project is uneven, investors will pay for the feedback time.
As for the effect, we have completed eight financing in four months, and I don't know if it is good.
However, we hope that users can look at this phenomenon objectively. In fact, the success of financing has nothing to do with our channels. We just sell water in the middle, and ultimately it depends on your project! So we are happy to succeed, but we won't overemphasize this aura on us.
After all, quick feedback is the core of our party.
Introduce several conventional channels:
1, the high net worth group around you
It can be your family, friends, clients and colleagues. If you find them to introduce your project, you may get angel investment.
2. Take the initiative to find investment institutions.
Collect some information about investors who invested in early projects on the Internet, and actively transmit business plans to each other.
3. Find investors through incubators, creative spaces, financing service platforms, FA and other institutions.
Incubators, creative spaces and financing service platforms will hold roadshows from time to time. You can participate in project roadshows and directly contact investment institutions.
If you lack experience in finding investors and lose confidence in the efficiency of roadshows, you may wish to find a professional service organization to help with financing. Naturally, there is a charge, and most of the charging methods are back-end charges.
