Super Angels

Super Angels are prominent angel investors who have developed track records of successful startup investments and operate like mini venture funds. Typical angel investments range from $25k-$100k, while Super Angels invest $100k-$500k+ per deal. Well-known Super Angels include Ron Conway, Chris Sacca, and Reid Hoffman. They have extensive networks, industry expertise, and experience spotting highly scalable startups early on. Super Angels fill a critical funding gap between seed stage and traditional VC rounds. Their larger investments allow startups to make more progress in order to attract VC interest. Many Super Angels have operated successful startups themselves. They provide valuable hands-on mentorship in addition to their larger capital. Startups backed by top Super Angels gain credibility and connections that increase their odds of raising VC rounds. In turn, VCs closely track Super Angel activity to identify promising startups to back as they scale.
