Angel Investor

An Angel Investor, also known as a “Seed” or “Private Investor”, refers to investors that seek out opportunities with great agency so as to provide funds for entrepreneurs or start-up companies. These are individuals that have a high net worth that aim at finding new methods of expanding their wealth as they help launch business ventures.

Through their investments, Angel Investors do not just loan funds for a project or an institution. What they actually require is that a percentage of ownership be rendered for the venture that based off of their initial investment. Said investment may happen continually as the enterprise grows.  It may also take place as a one-time contribution that will get the project off the ground.
