Benefits for Investors
Strong Financial Returns
The most attractive incentive for angel investing is outstanding financial returns. Another attractive factor is the ability to add value to investments through mentoring, coaching, and sharing expertise and contacts.
Recognizing the benefits of aggregating capital and resources, an increasing number of angels are investing as groups. As a member of an angel group, investors realize many benefits not available to individual angels. As a member of SBIC Participations, you will have access to unique benefits that come with being a member of a fast growing network of angel investors.
