So we need to do a better job of spreading the word of how to get involved in angel investing and I am therefore looking forward to speaking at the Angel Capital Overview workshop in Vancouver tomorrow. The workshop is organized by Bob Chaworth-Musters’ AngelForum and provides an overview of the angel investment process from valuation to due diligence to terms sheets in a compact 1 day workshop. And as it is led by US Angel of 2009 and Kauffman Foundation Entrepreneur-in-Residence Bill Payne, I am looking forward to learning a thing or two myself.
