Angel Investors play a critical role in the startup ecosystem where an idea needs funding and any financial return is unknown or unclear. They take the risk well before early-stage VCs will even consider investing. An eco-system that ignores Angels and the critical role they play is a systemically broken eco-system.
Last Wednesday, Greg Riebe represented Perth Angels at WA Pulse—an event highlighting initiatives in the growing startup and innovation scene. Hosted at Perth Town Hall and supported by Meshpoints, the evening brought together diverse contributors, from government bodies to investors. Thank you to StartupWA for organising the event and to everyone involved in making it a dynamic showcase of Western Australia's innovation ecosystem! We would like to thank Perth Angels Sponsors: VICI Ventures, a Visagio Company, Carbon Group, IdeaBank and eir. We are very grateful for all your support! #angelinvesting #seedfunding #startup #innovation #angelinvestor #perthbusiness #australiabusiness #scaleup #funding
