Bruin Angels would love to have you as an investing member or an educational member. Below describes each type of membership so that you can decide which is appropriate for you.
1.
If you’re an accredited investor, we encourage you to join us at the Angel Investor membership level. When you join you get access to our full network, invites to our angel only events, and all the benefits that our educational members get. To learn more about what it means to be an accredited investor, please check this information page on the SEC site.
2.
If you’re not an accredited investor, we still encourage you to join Bruin Angels. Our Educational Members are not able to invest in startups, but get access to our educational events and practice sessions to learn what it takes to be an angel investor so you’re ready to hit the ground running once you become accredited. You can also network with other members at our general membership events.
Membership Donations:
Educational Only – $700 a year
Angel Investor – $1,200 a year

We also suggest a minimum annual investment into companies rather than require to preserve the investment discretion of our members. We understand that economic conditions and a number of other factors can impact the quantity or quality of investment opportunities in a given year. During a good year, many of our members will invest more than $10,000.
