𝗔𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁𝘂𝗽 Looking forward to hosting our next angel investor meetup on Thurs 14th. A big thanks to Alex Macdonald and sequel for partnering with us to provide their space. An informal, and casual meetup for angel investors from different angel communities across the UK. Alongside helping angels building stronger connections with funds. I’m limiting spaces to create a small group setting and help facilitate those new connections. Any interested angels, drop me a comment / message to join us. I'll share the event details.

A big thank you to all the angels across our network who joined this week’s investor meeting. It was a highly engaging session and a fantastic chance to discuss and spotlight new funding opportunities. Looking forward to next week’s angel investor meetup, and we’d love to welcome any interested angel investors to join us. If you’re interested in being part of our community, feel free to reach out.

We hosted our Thim Ventures angel investor meeting this week. My goal is helping connect a curated list of top funding opportunities with our angel network. I was thrown back by the level of engagement and demand from angels wanting to join the meeting this month. So much, we were overallocated this month with demand from angels that we needed to restrict numbers to keep it manageable! I look to bring in guests who are domain experts in the fields of a presenting opportunity to add real value to discussion. A special thank you to everyone who joined and contributed to the conversation. Already, we’re seeing the beginning of potential new collaborations, valuable introductions, and meaningful investment conversations unfold. What’s exciting is that we’ve nearly doubled the size of our angel network recently—not just in the UK, but globally. If you’re an angel investor looking for fresh opportunities, a collaborative learning environment, and some fun along the way, let’s speak. I'd love to chat around joining our community. We’ve got much more planned for the rest of the year 😀 #investment #angelcommunity #angel #investor

I'm at Sifted Summit today. Looking forward to catching up with both existing and new connections! Drop me a message, and come say hi if you're around 🖐🏽

For any startups in my network that are due to fundraise soon, be sure to check out this insightful conversation where I interviewed Shosh Shetty on the The Bae HQ Lab podcast. We spoke about the interesting "4 T's" framework covering Team, Technology, Traction & TAM - lots to learn! Link in the comments. 🔗 Cc Amardeep Parmar Gurvir R.

Looking at creating more opportunities for founders to connect with and discuss their investment propositions with angel investors. #fundraising #angelinvestment #investment #discussion

I'm running new pitch opportunities for some of the most promising pre-seed to Series A companies to present in front of top-tier angels. Through my coaching and consulting work, I’ve been closely working with talented founders, helping them refine their investment propositions, pitches, and narratives to secure the right funding. Having successfully helped others complete their funding rounds - I've seen firsthand just how vital access to strategic angel capital is at this stage. At Thim Ventures, we’re hosting our angel investor meetings where a select group of companies present their opportunities to our angel network. This time, we've expanded our reach by bringing in external angels, creating even more exposure for securing investment. The result? Engaging discussions, fresh insights, and new connections. We’re already seeing meaningful relationships forming, leading to post-due diligence conversations. If you're looking to close an angel round or need targeted advisory support, drop me a message. You can find our intake form hyperlinked to my profile. I’m curating our next round of pitching opportunities for a limited number of presentation slots, to be selected by the end of next week. And for angels interested in joining our next investor meeting, reach out—I’d be happy to share more details. We can kick-off post summer by creating more opportunities to close funding! 🚀 #pitching #angelinvestment #angelgroup #fundraising #investment

Navigating a successful capital raise is intense. And it could cost you millions in the future if your strategy isn’t on point.   I had an awesome chat with fundraising coach, and founder of Thim Ventures, Shosh Shetty   Shosh has spent nearly 15 years as an investor, operator, VC and leading an angel syndicate. He now works with founders on their fundraising strategy ⚙   Shosh talked about the importance of:   💡 Looking beyond just raising capital, and evaluating founder-investor fit 💡 Being time efficient with your raise 💡 Not rushing a deal through and compromising on terms 💡 Founders articulating the quantitative value of their proposition   Links to the conversation in comments below - have a listen!   #startups #fundraising #vc RevHire

Big thanks to Shosh Shetty and Thim Ventures for having us down (virtually) to pitch on Monday night. Super impressed with how professional and thorough the process was to get the pitch in place, and it felt like an engaged angel room too. We've had more commitments over the last week so if you are interested in coming in on our round or would like to see our deck, drop me a DM. 🚀 🍔 #fundraising Oya Kitchens
