## About Empire Angels

Empire Angels is a member-led, New York City-based angel group comprised of experienced young professionals who are attracted to making smart investments in early-stage technology ventures with a focus on supporting young, US-based entrepreneurs.

The group is collaborative and open source, providing a democratic framework with highly filtered deal flow and member training. Empire Angels, through its individual members, typically invests between $100k and $250k in Seed, Seed+, and Series A rounds. EA invests in early-stage, capital-efficient companies led by dedicated, young founders with a clever solution, a large target market, and initial user engagement, as well as a clear path to meaningful revenue generation in the next 6-12 months.

Empire Angels hosts monthly pitch sessions to screen start-ups before pursuing due diligence and active negotiations. Empire Angels is not a fund, and while members collaborate on due diligence, they make individual investment decisions.

Empire Angels has the youngest membership of any angel group in the country and is the only organization focused on training the Millennial generation of angel investors.
