“We have worked with a number of angel groups throughout the course of our seed raise, and without question our experience with 37 Angels has been the most efficient and most organized process we have seen. Such an approach, makes a tremendous difference to founders, regardless of whether a group chooses to invest or not.”

“Working with Angela and 37 Angels has been amazing. They made up a large chunk of our seed round (directly or indirectly), and I have enjoyed working with them more than many of the investors I met in Silicon Valley and at Y Combinator Demo Day. They are quick, respectful of founders’ times, and great partners to have on your startup journey. Highly recommended; no-brainer."
— Deepak J. Chhugani, Founder & CEO The Lobby

“Angela and 37 Angels are a breath of fresh air to the venture community in NY. I’ve never met anyone who offered advice so freely through all stages of development and fundraising. It’s clear that the organization is looking to make a big impact in the tech community. It is also extremely refreshing to work with an organization that understands the pain points of fundraising, and has taken those pain points into consideration when designing its seamless pitch process. Would highly recommend to all other entrepreneurs.”

“37 Angels operates at the same pace as startups. Other angel groups are notorious for taking up to 9 months to make a decision. Most investors acknowledge that fundraising is incredibly time consuming, yet few do anything about it...except for 37 Angels. I hope that 37 Angels will set a new standard for Angel groups and institutional investors by making the fundraising process more efficient so founders can focus on what really matters: running their business.”
