Today, we're introducing a new initiative for AngelList team members to angel invest and become founders: Funders & Founders.
Funders
AngelList will fund up to $100k per team member for investments they source via a new fund anchored by capital from AngelList. Anyone working at the company will get the opportunity to earn a share of profits from promising investments they identify. The investment is subject to approval by an investment partner.
AngelList expects to invest $10k on average into each deal sourced. The team member, in turn, can earn 20% of profits from that investment.
If the investment is not approved, the investment partner will provide a detailed reason to help the team member build their investing knowledge.
Founders
If a team member starts a company after leaving AngelList, we’ll invest up to $100k to help them build the business, subject to approval by an investment partner.
AngelList alumni who have gone on to start their own companies include Graham Jenkin (CoinList), Kendrick Nguyen (Republic), Kapil Kale (Tremendous), and more.
Learn From the Best
Team members at AngelList learn to build, launch, and sell. In other words, they do the work that founders do.
They also learn from some of the best funders and founders in the world via exclusive events.
Most importantly, team members leave AngelList with the skills to become great funders and founders.
