SL Angel Investors are wealthy individuals who look for new businesses to invest in. The way angel investing works is that the investor will take a percentage of the equity of the business in return for funding. For many a new business that is struggling to find any funding at all, this can be a great way to generate enough cash flow to get a business off the ground or to keep it running when finances get tight.
The members of the Network are leaders in the Entrepreneurial Eco-System with strong operational experience. SL Siliguri Angels Network provides feedback on the business plans, funding, mentoring, angels business and professional network, and incubator space.
Remember that ideas are for free but execution makes all the difference. Startups present their business proposals at their investor meetings held every month. Promising ideas where a significant number of members are interested will be shortlisted for the investment process.
