The Angel Sessions
Want to become a better investor?
Our 8-session, in-depth angel investing course for women gives you the opportunity to increase your investing skills in early-stage startups, attract high-quality deal flow from a diverse set of founders, and develop your personal brand as an early-stage angel investor.
Participating angel investors will gain knowledge on key investment processes and best practices through the application of foundational investing frameworks and concepts, build their network of active angels, and have access to live pitches and real investment opportunities from women and underrepresented founders currently raising.
“SWITCH Angels’ primary focus is increasing the amount of investing power that sits in the hands of successful women, by opening opportunities for them to write cheques, get on cap tables, and broadening influence in the space. We can access a roadmap with best practices and industry insights, build generational wealth, and have a true impact on what our future looks likes.”
Kate Brodock, CEO of SWITCH & General Partner at The W Fund
