For Immediate Release 2023 AngelFunders Report Released Overland Park, KS (December 6, 2023) – The AngelCapital Association (ACA) has released the AngelFunders Report for 2023. It’s supported in large part by the Angel Investor Foundation. Visit us online at angelcapitalassociation.org.
The AngelCapital Association (ACA) Summit represents a beacon for black investors, founders, and high-growth startups. Additionally, the ACA’s Angel University pre-summit seminars offer deep dives into crucial topics like angel exit strategies and startup board management.
Angels often make their first real impact post-investment by helping a portfolio company develop a “real” Board, by insisting on documented processes, key metrics and measures and a more rigorous approach to corporate oversight and accountability. In the latter case, returns improved by 20%. with an average of 5.7 Director seats.
The AngelCapital Association is moving into a confident, secure future, because of the successes we’ve had and the way we’ve navigated the last two years. In 2021, ACA launched its first formal DEI Task Force, made up of a diverse group of ACA members, board leaders, and ecosystem champions.
Savara also recognized the value that angels could bring to its governing practices and leadership team. Several angel investors, including an M.D. with relevant expertise, joined the board of directors. The AngelFunders Report 2020 is the only source of verified data provided directly by active angel investing groups.
To answer this question, let’s first identify the stage at which angels most commonly invest. Whomever is doing the bulk of those pre-seed deals examined by CARTA, it is probably not America’s leading professional angel groups.

Exit and IPO activity have dropped precipitously, and funding has declined across the board. Few would dispute that we are in the midst of a cyclical downturn in the early-stage funding cycle.
By: Pat Gouhin, Chief Executive Officer Looking back over the past few years of uncertainty and effort, The AngelCapital Association has made it through stronger than ever because of the work of our dedicated members, volunteers and professional staff.
We knew that when her fellowship ended, we needed to bring someone on board who was solely focused on this work. Though TLP is headquartered in Danville, Virginia we have been involved with multiple statewide and national entities (AngelCapital Association, State Science and Technology Institute, Kauffman Foundation, etc.)
Data from the recently published 2023 AngelCapital Association AngelFunders Report can provide answers to these questions. The decline in angel funding was similar to the decline in venture funding. While corporate venture invested 50% less than in 2022 and VCs invested overall 31% less, angels invested 27% less.
This project is designed to better educate the early stage investor community on the benefits of Deep Tech investments with the intention of increasing the amount of private capital available for deployment in the Deep Tech sector. Launched the new Boards in Action course, available in March as part of the AU winter term.
This historical or look back perspective is based on a survey conducted by the AngelCapital Association in Q1 and Q2 of 2021 compared to the same survey conduct two years later in 2023. As a result, we are able to understand and contrast the sentiments of angel groups in 2023 compared to 2021.
This year, our incoming board chair launched a brand-new angel investing podcast called Angels Live – giving us a great platform for bringing our community together with powerful interviews and discussions about the future of angel investing. Patrick Gouhin Chief Executive Officer AngelCapital Association.
Angels invest their own money and are in the business of high risk/high return. Over half the deals and total investments reported in the AngelCapital Association’s most recent AngelFunders Report were made in pre-seed and seed rounds. We will require a seat on the company’s board, sometimes two.
