TiE Socal Angels is a new initiative of TiE Socal assisting startups with angel investments and mentoring, incubation and access to investors. Last year we had launched TiE Socal Labs as a virtual incubator which helps aspiring entrepreneurs who are selected to be part of our virtual incubation with mentioring and connections to investments. TiE SoCal Angels takes it one step further - a selectd company is assigned a mentor that may become a board member and angel investor to the assigned company and actively assists the company through the rhe entire lifecycle of their company – from cradle to successful exit: ideation process, making a realistic business plan, finding co-founders, building proof-of-concept, creating MVP, finding beta customers, commercializing the products, creating go-to-market strategy, expanding sales and distribution channels, and above all, exploring various fund-raising options. TiE SoCal Labs helps put key people, processes and systems in place to make startup founders & entrepreneurs successful! We also help with initial seed funding if the selected TiE Socal Labs company Qualifies for initial seed round. Contact TiE SoCal Angels for more information
