Angel Activity Rebounds in 2021 FIGURE 1

In 2021, we saw an overall recovery and uptake in new invest- ments. Organizations reported an increase in investor appe- tite as 2021 progressed, which was reflected by the increase in investment activity. The 2021 data paints a more positive picture than 2020, showing a sharp increase in investment activity from Q1 to Q2, a slight drop in Q3 and a slight in- crease in deal activity in Q4. Towards the end of 2021, organi- zations reported a halt to the resumption of some in-person activities due to a new wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. This may have influenced the slight decrease in activity in the lat- ter part of the year.

Angel organizations include angel groups, family offices, SPVs and funds that invest in early-stage companies.
