2020 Report on Angel Investing In Canada

Angel Forum

Since 1997, the Angel Forum - Vancouver has successfully introduced emerging companies to private equity investors at its semi-annual fo- rum. Presenting companies have raised well over $35 million directly through our forum and a multiple of that through our network. At the same time, we offer workshops to both entrepreneurs and investors, and socials in our “home pub” after. We have access to and work closely with Angels from all over British Columbia and the US. We collaborate with local organizations and are part of Canada’s National Angel Capital Organization and the An- gel Capital Association in the US. Our private meetings are exclusive for pre-registered member investors and a select group of companies and event sponsors.

Angel One Network

Angel One Network is a Burlington-based, not-for-profit organiza- tion with investor members from southern Ontario who invest in ear- ly-stage and growth ICT, health care, and clean tech companies; with a dash of breweries and wineries on the side. New members are al- ways welcome. Angel One members are risk takers and deal makers passionately involved in the start-up and early-stage ecosystem. They are entre- preneurial at heart and are a diverse and vastly experienced group of accredited investors who are interested in funding innovation and building the Canadian economy one deal at a time.

Since the first investment in December 2011, Angel One members have made 125 investment rounds of $28.5 million into 74 companies.

Our members say it best, “Angel One Network supports investors with the whole process of investing, presenting deals, due diligence and closing support, together with portfolio management. It is a complete service at a very high level.” – Juan Gonzalez, corporate member since 2018.
