Business Angel Finance

Business angels are successful business people who invest their money and time in promising young businesses. They tend to be fairly long term investments, so you'll have to be prepared to work closely with an angel for several years.

They don't just put money in and dissapear into the background though. In return for investment, they'll expect a significant equity stake in your business. They will also often want to play an active role in the business's management and growth strategy. Some BAs invest on their own whereas others do as part of a network, syndicate or investment club.

Northwest Business Angels is the business angels network for the region. The service matches potential high growth companies with high net worth individuals looking for business investment opportunities. It also helps companies seeking investment become 'investment ready' and prepared to meet with investors.

You should register with Northwest Business Angels if your business is looking for:

  • £10,000 to £500,000 finance to start up, expand or move your business forward
  • Flexible repayment from profit long term NOT from cash flow regardless of profit
  • The opportunity to strengthen your businesses' board or management with experienced and successful people
  • Help from people experienced in growing successful businesses
