Venture Into Investing
Venture into Investing webinar: why be an angel? The golden rules of effective angel investing
Join UKBAA Roderick Beer in our new Venture into Investing webinar series
Angel investing is about far more than writing cheques. It is a unique opportunity to back ambitious founders, support innovation, and play an active role in shaping the next generation of high-growth businesses — while building a long-term investment portfolio.
This session is designed to demystify why people become angel investors and, critically, how the most effective angels approach investing in practice.
Drawing on real-world experience from across the UK angel ecosystem, we will explore the motivations, responsibilities, and realities of angel investing, before introducing the golden rules that underpin disciplined, successful early-stage investment strategies.
In this session, you’ll learn:
- Why individuals choose to become angel investors — financially, professionally, and personally
- What angel investing really involves, including time commitment, risk, and portfolio thinking
- The core principles that effective angels follow to manage risk and improve outcomes
- Common mistakes made by new angels — and how to avoid them
This session is ideal for aspiring and early-stage angel investors who want to move beyond enthusiasm and curiosity, and start investing with clarity, structure, and confidence.
Whether you are exploring angel investing for the first time or looking to refine your approach, this webinar will provide a strong foundation for making better-informed investment decisions.
Our Venture into Investing course , starting in person in London on March 30th will guide you through an investment deal from start to finish. You’ll learn from AND invest alongside experienced angels.
