Angel Investors vs Venture Capitalists
Angel Investors and Venture Capital Investors can both provide funding but the differences are important for startups looking to find the right partner.
Angel Investors are typically individuals – They typically don’t have other decision-makers in their investments and they are usually investing their own money. This gives them flexibility in terms of deal terms and it also means that they often don’t have external requirements on how they get their money back or if they need a seat on the board.
Venture Capital investors are typically not individuals, but rather LLCs or firms. They are most typically investing other people’s money in a Fund. VC’s will raise this money from people referred to as Limited Partners or LPs. LP’s are typically writing million-dollar checks and expecting VC’...

Angel Investors and Venture Capital Investors can both provide funding but the differences are important for startups looking to find the right partner.
Angel Investors are typically individuals – They typically don’t have other decision-makers in their investments and they are usually investing their own money. This gives them flexibility in terms of deal terms and it also means that they often don’t have external requirements on how they get their money back or if they need a seat on the board.
Venture Capital investors are typically not individuals, but rather LLCs or firms. They are most typically investing other people’s money in a Fund. VC’s will raise this money from people referred to as Limited Partners or LPs. LP’s are typically writing million-dollar checks and expecting VC’s to invest that money and get a return.
Because VC’s are investing other people’s money they have general expectations on how long it may take to get their money back, most typically in 5-7 years.
Both Angels and Venture Capitalists look for companies that can grow and be successful but each may look at companies at different stages and be interested in making different types of investments.

Welcome to the Investors Trading Academy talking glossary of financial terms and events.
Our word of the day is “Angel Investor”.
An Angel investor is a person, business or group that provides financial backing for small startups or entrepreneurs. Angel investors are usually found among an entrepreneur's family and friends. The capital they provide can be a one-time injection of seed money or ongoing support to carry the company through difficult times.
A Business Angel investor uses their personal disposable finance and business or professional experience to invest in the growth of a small business, generally in start-up or early stage. Angel investors can make investments on their own or as part of a syndicate.
Angel investors invest in early stage or start-up companies in exchange for an equity ownership interest. Angel investing in start-ups has been accelerating. High-profile success stories like Uber, WhatsApp, and Facebook have spurred angel investors to make multiple bets with the hopes of getting outsized returns.
The typical angel investment is $25,000 to $100,000 a company, but can go higher.
Here is what angels particularly care about:
• The quality, passion, commitment, and integrity of the founders.
• The market opportunity being addressed and the potential for the company to become very big.
• A clearly thought out business plan, and any early evidence of obtaining traction toward the plan.
• Interesting technology or intellectual property.
• An appropriate valuation with reasonable terms.
Angel investors give more favorable terms than other lenders, as they are usually investing in the person rather than the viability of the business. They are focused on helping the business succeed, rather than reaping a huge profit from their investment. Angel investors are essentially the exact opposite of a venture capitalist.

Entrepreneur & Angel Investor
“I’m trying to keep it fact based, so I removed the bias that’s present in the mainstream media. We don’t have that bias.”
I’ve met so many incredible people here in Dubai, it’s amazing how far the needle has shifted in recent years. Technological and financial innovation is at the heart of everything that is happening in this incredible city and entrepreneurs and creators are flocking from every corner of the globe.
Today’s show features a guest who is a great example of this. Mario Nawfal is a blockchain expert and angel investor turned citizen journalist who has rapidly become the biggest name on X Spaces. It’s quite a rise for a man who just over a decade ago was selling blenders door-to-door in his homeland Australia.
Mario was born and raised in Lebanon, before his family migrated to Australia seeking better opportunities. His academic journey led him to major in banking and finance at university, but he felt the urge to do more with his life. Taking a bold step, he dropped out to forge his path as an entrepreneur.
Mario’s first business venture was Froothie, a now globally recognised brand he started from nothing and focuses on making high spec kitchen appliances, promoting healthier lifestyles, and after a year of trade, a multi-million dollar turnover.
The secret to Mario’s success, he says, lies not just in his relentless nature and work ethic, but also the timing. Mario emphasises how crucial this is for any business and its reflected in his renowned consulting firm, International Blockchain Consulting (IBC), which he launched during the crypto boom.
As such many of Mario’s ventures go beyond the conventional, spanning e-bikes and hoverboards to biohacking and the metaverse, and he openly advocates for “breaking the rules,” and a strategic approach that involves doing things others are not willing to.
In the landscape of saturated markets, Mario advises against reinventing the wheel. Instead, he suggests replicating what works but with a unique twist. This principle is evident in his marketing agency, We Are Growth Hackers.

In this video of the Startup 101 series, we explain who is an angel investor, who is a venture capitalist and outline the difference between an angel investor and a venture capitalist.
You will also learn how both the investment approaches are different and what these investors are looking for in a startup before making an investment.
Who is an angel investor and a Venture Capitalist?
Basically, an angel investor is anyone who uses his own money to invest in startups, while a venture capitalist (VC) is someone who uses other people’s money to make investments in startups.
What is the difference between an Angel Investor and a Venture Capitalist?
Angel Investor: These generally include former or current entrepreneurs or big businessmen, who have large sums of money available for investment. Anyone who has enough money coming from different sources, be it income or business can become an angel investor.
VC: VCs usually form an entity like a VC Fund which raises funds from big family offices, corporates or different funds like pension funds. These VCs then pool all the money they have raised and it can now be used to invest in a lot more startups that can be invested by a single angel investor.
Angel Investor: Angel investors usually invest at a very early stage of the startup right at inception or the idea stage. As the angel investors come into the picture at such an early stage when the idea of the startup is not even tested, they are taking a lot of risks and they usually end up with much more equity compared to anyone coming in at later stages of the startup. Due to a larger stake in the early stage, angel investors generally make a huge profit when a startup succeeds and have a higher return on their investment.
VCs: Unlike angel investors, VCs take a far lesser risk as they usually invest in a startup in their growth or expansion stage. It means that a startup has a proven business model and is already generating revenues. But due to a smaller stake in the company, VCs usually have a smaller return on investment compared to the angel investors.
Angel Investor: Since the risk is high, angel investors are looking to make a quick buck and they generally end up selling their stake as soon as the valuation of the startup is increased and they get a good return on their investment. Considering that angel investors don’t have any plans for long term involvement with the startup, they are not much involved in the day to day operations of the company. Which is why they don’t ask to be a part of the company’s board.
VCs: However, since the VCs enter the startup during its growth phase, they are more interested in helping the company grow and expand as quickly as possible. They not only put in the money but also support the founders and the team by providing them with their expertise and access to their networks so that they can grow in size and then they again help them raise more funds from other VCs as well. In a lot of the cases, these VCs stick with the company for longer durations like until the IPO or an acquisition. This means that the goal of the startup and the VCs are generally aligned and both are interested in the growth of the startup rather than making a quick buck. This is the reason that VCs have a more hands-on approach and often demand to be a part of the company’s board and remain actively involved in the day to day operations of the company.
