About the Angel Capital Association
The Angel Capital Association is a trade association that supports angel investment groups in North America. ACA was founded by angel investment groups located in the United States and Canada to help maximize the success of group based angel investors. This association has been established to:
- Improve angel group investing through education and collaboration of best practices by sharing:
- experiences related to starting, growing, and sustaining angel groups
- the current operating and investment processes of the more established angel groups
- best practices in screening, due diligence, selection, and exit preparation
- best practices in advising, mentoring, and serving on the boards of directors of portfolio companies
- Coordinate co-investment and syndication across angel investment groups
- Help disseminate information to ACA members regarding state or federal public policy that may affect angel investing
- Promote the growth and importance of the angel investment group industry, attracting more individual angels to groups and stimulating communication with promising entrepreneurs, other equity investors and policy makers
- Provide access and discounts to products and services of interest to angel groups and their members
