          About Angel Investors

          Angel investors play a huge role in the venture capital world. In most cases, angel investors are wealthy individuals who use their massive funds to supply capital to new businesses. Recently, however, some angel investors have come together to form angel groups, pooling their capital to provide even more funding. Angel investors usually invest in businesses that provide a very high return on investment, and unlike most venture capital firms, angels actually invest their own personal funds. Investments in industries such as software, healthcare, and biotechnology remain the most popular for angel investors.
