LEGACY ANGEL
INVESTOR NETWORk
- Legacy Venture Advisors maintains a network of Angel Investors with prior experience working as management consultants, investment bankers, transactional attorneys and technology executives who are all accredited investors.
- Our mission is to create a compelling investment community of premiere business and professional leaders helping to identify promising start-up companies and infusing the capital and strategic guidance necessary for success.
- Angel Investors typically invest $10,000 - $100,000 in a single transaction and Angel Investors receive their pro-rata equity allocated owneship interest in the start-up company based on the terms established for all investors participating in that venture funding round.
- Angel Investors often gain access to promising early-stage businesses before they attract institutional venture capital or larger investors, which can result in favorable investment terms.
- Angle Investors can often benefit from a first-mover investment advantage since getting in early with the right startup can lead to outsized returns if the business becomes highly successful.
- Legacy’s Angel Investor Network is intended only for accredited investors and is Not intended for retail investors who make less than $200,000 per year.
- Meeting accredited investor status requires annual income greater than $200,000 (individually) or $300,000 (with spouse) for the past two years, and reasonably expects the same for the current year OR a net worth greater than $1,000,000 excluding your residence.
BENEFITS OF
INVESTING IN VENTURE
- Venture capital allows investors to diversify their portfolios beyond traditional asset classes (stocks, bonds, real estate).
- Investing in venture capital deals can lead to significant returns, especially if the company grows rapidly or goes public.
- Early-stage investments in successful startups often yield returns much higher than traditional investments like stocks or bonds.
- Venture capital gives investors access to high-growth startups, some of which may become "Unicorns" (companies valued at over $1 billion).
- Door Dash, , Air BnB and Instacart are all incubator-backed Unicorns.
- Since venture capital investments are in private companies, they are often not correlated with the broader stock market. This can provide a hedge against stock market volatility, offering a level of stability during downturns.
- Many successful startups are acquired by larger companies or go public through an IPO (Initial Public Offering). These exits can generate substantial profits for early investors.
- Successful venture investments can compound over time, creating a strong foundation for long-term wealth creation.
- While it may take years for a company to mature, the financial rewards can be substantial in the right conditions.
