Angel Investors Network (AIN) is the nation’s first online angel investor community, established in 1997 to advance free enterprise through private capital. As a global membership platform, AIN connects accredited investors with entrepreneurs seeking growth capital, offering an online marketplace with over 1,000 vetted deals spanning multiple industries. Members access tools for deal sourcing, due diligence, evaluation and portfolio tracking, alongside wealth-building programs, webinars and educational resources to support informed investment decisions and legacy building.
AIN’s model addresses the funding needs of startups that may fall outside the reach of traditional lenders or venture capital firms. Investors explore opportunities in electronics manufacturing, software-as-a-service, eCommerce, real estate, fintech, insuretech, the Internet of Things and augmented reality, among others. The community pools resources, enabling members to diversify risk while providing startups with both capital and hands-on guidance through mentorship from experienced investors.
Members gain access to a secure portal featuring detailed company summaries, financial projections and management team information. Beyond capital contributions, investors often share strategic advice, industry connections and operational support to help ventures scale. Regular workshops, podcasts, blog articles and live events further strengthen member expertise, fostering collaboration and continuous learning within the network.
While AIN maintains a broad investment scope, its public materials do not specify a dedicated clean technology or battery technology focus. Investors interested in renewables or energy storage can identify relevant opportunities among the platform’s diverse listings, tailoring their own portfolios to include sustainable energy ventures.
