Working with angel networks in India

An angel network brings individual investors together to review startups as a group. You apply once and may be seen by many angels, which is far less work than approaching each person. The investors usually decide individually whether to put money in, so a good pitch to the network does not guarantee a round, and a round can come together in parts.

Networks differ in how they work. Some hold regular pitch sessions and publish a calendar, some screen applications for a time and then invite a few teams to present, and some take only warm introductions. Some charge founders nothing, some charge a fee for the screening, and some invest through a pooled vehicle. Read how each network in India describes its process before you apply.

Angels bring more than money when they are a good fit: sector experience, customers and introductions to later investors. When you meet a network, find out who the active members are, what they have invested in before, and how they behave after investing.

How do I approach angel networks in India?

Start from the profile of each one: confirm it backs your stage and sector, find how it takes pitches (an online form, a named contact or a warm introduction), and send a short note with what you build, who it is for and what you have achieved so far. A focused note to a few good-fit investors does more than a mass mail to all of them.

Do angel networks in India charge founders a fee?

Practice differs by network. Some take no fee, some charge for screening or for a pitch slot, and some earn from the investors. The terms are set by each network and should be on its own page, so confirm them before you apply.
